Cougars vs. Cougars

I grew up in a family where we watch football and other sports together at times, and it has been a nice little bonding activity. I recall many times going to my siblings sporting events and cheering them on. It has always been a lot of fun. Thus, I quite enjoyed being at a sporting event with Brandon and Kelsey this weekend!

It turns out that Kelsey has become a pretty great football fan this season, and so she had the great idea to go see BYU play when they came out for a game against the University of Houston. The plan had originally been for she, Debbie, and myself to go (yes, the ladies are the football/sports fans down here) while Brandon and his dad went to do something else. There was a last minute change when Debbie decided to go spend a couple weeks with the grandkids in Oregon instead of going to the football game (can't say that I really blame her though, those are some cute grandkids she has there). Thus, Brandon agreed to come to the game with us! Now...on to the excitement...

Cougars vs. Cougars! That was the first fun part about this game. It turns out though, that the U of H's mascot looks more like a fox/weasel than a cougar. Luckily, Cosmo looks like a cougar mascot actually should. This game was INTENSE!!! The true blue cougs were able to pull off a win at the end, so we walked away happy, but with maybe a few hernias from all they'd put us through with that.


The game was pretty bizarre. BYU had an incredible start, and then U.H. started having some unnatural interceptions and runs. BYU played a solid game though, and won by a solid, single point! Thanks to Kelsey, we had awesome seats on the front row (though this may have actually just added to the herniated conditions of our innards). Oh, and the seats provided us with a moment of ESPN fame. It turns out that we were apparently on your home screen for your viewing pleasure if you weren't lucky enough to be watching the game in the stadium with us!

Well done Cougars!

High Fiving Cosmo and the team for pulling out the win!
