this is simply beautiful. i love it. every word.

College football does grab you.

from the kids sliding down the hill on cardboard boxes outside the stadium, to the alumni pavilion with free Raising Cane's chicken and Blue Bell Ice Cream. to the Band of Pride with its pregame concert in the tailgate lot, to the flyovers from Barksdale afb, from Kix Brooks walking past you on the way up to his skybox, to Terry Bradshaw's shrine with all of his superbowl rings, to General Patton ringing the bell to fire up the team and crowd before the game, to the AMAZING tailgate food that only people from Louisiana know how to make, to......man...too much to even mention. the pure greatness that is college football is the greatest spectator event on the planet. even for smaller teams in smaller conferences. there is something magic about fall saturdays.

i'm just so happy it is time to tee that tater up!
