We live right on top of the BYU campus. We are a few minutes walk to the football stadium, so we can hear the cheers when BYU scores a touchdown. The university football stadium seats 65,000 people and is pretty amazing! When there is a home game, roads around us are blocked off and we have to avoid all the crazy traffic. We get to enjoy the festivities that come with it and even get free pizza at the 'tail gate' party, just for students.
For the first home game of the season, BYU was ranked in the top 10 and were facing Florida State, a team who traditionally have a very strong football program. It brought a lot of attention to Provo for the weekend and there was a lot of exitement around the place leading into the game.
Savannah and David got the footballs in and won BYU prizes!
This area was designated for students. All this free entertainment was lots of fun. I must be an evil mum because I got a kick out of smashing Hyrum. In my mind I was thinking, 'this blow is for teasing your little sister', this one is for.....
Isaac enjoyed a piece of the action too!
Hyrum was incredible here. He did 12 chinups and the Marines were so impressed he won a football.
In this shot the guys asked Hyum if he wanted them to smile or look mean. This is Hyurm trying to look mean.
Uncle Chad, cousin Trent and Hyrum at the game.
Unfortunately the game was a big disappointment. The Cougars lost their first home game in about 18 starts and they lost ugly. Lets hope they can turn it around the rest of the season.
