Wooo Pig Sooie

A couple weeks ago, we got the opportunity to go to a Razorback game. Jess and I moved to AR in 2000 and until last weekend, had never been to a game. Jess's friend offered us four tickets and a place to stay for the weekend. How could we say no?

Well, we didn't! We packed up the car and headed out on the three and a half hour ride to Fayetteville. The girls did great and were excited - but probably more because they got to skip school on Friday.

We arrived Friday afternoon and walked around the city and pick up all of our Razorback garb - shirts, sweatshirts, and hog noses. We stayed at Jess's friends' condo with them and on Saturday went to a great farmer's market and window shopped around the town until the evening game.

The girls were excited about the game, but not as excited as Jess and me. We got there and took in the school spirit and atmosphere. It was pretty awesome. The game was pretty awesome too. Granted, it was not a nail-biter - the Razorbacks scored twice pretty early in the game. But the other team rallied in the second half, but it wasn't enough to win. It was fun and made us bigger fans.

Layne is a huge pillow pets fan, so this was a no-brainer.



Our FREE tickets!




It wasn't cold, but Layne insisted on the hog hat.



Sydney wasn't as excited as Layne, but she was happy to wear her shirt and headband. Even though she spent most of the game playing on her iPod.



The crowd calling the hogs ... Wooo pig sooie!!



Our seats were pretty good. Look at all the red!

Can't wait to go to another game!
