Manpost Minus the Man

Whenever Devin manposts his team crashes and burns. Clemson still has a few more games and an ACC Championship game to win so I'll spare him the curse-inducing writing. Last weekend we took a trip to S.C. to visit friends and watch the Tigers play Wake Forest. The game almost killed us a few times. I often wondered what the collective blood pressure of the entire stadium was. But somehow we came back to win in the last 7 seconds making the score 31-28. This makes their record 9-1 and they are headed to the ACC championship game in December. (And since Devin already had tickets to the game he was especially tense... as an understatement.)

Here I am with Jackie and Alisha. Yes, we were on the very top row of the stadium. But, we didn't mind, the entire stadium is full of energy and we could actually see everything quite well there. Plus we had an awesome view of the surrounding area. :) And, thanks to our friend Melissa who scored awesome tickets and was willing to share a few extras, we got to sit here for half of the game...

Yep, the 3rd row! I think the coolest moment for me was when Wake Forest kicked a field goal, missed it, and the ball went straight for us. The guy two rows behind us caught it.



After a win everyone runs onto the field and swarms the players like they are one giant boy band. Then everyone hugs and sings the Alma matter. The music started up and these two frat boys shouted, "Somebody hug us!" So Devin went over and put his arm around him and swayed with them while they sung. It was presh.


Touching the giant tiger paw.


I have no recollection of taking this picture.



And don't forget the amazing golf game! I wish I had pics of our kids playing with all their old friends. They were basically babysat the entire weekend and had a great time playing.
