IT'S SATURDAY NIGHT IN TIGER STADIUM

And Emerson was there! Any Tiger fan knows there is nothing like a Saturday night in Tiger Stadium and this was Emerson's first game. Of course, we wondered how she would handle tailgating and all the madness of being on campus all day and then making it thru the game- Have no idea why we worried. SHE LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT. Tailgating- she ate her way thru campus and made lots of new friends wherever we went. She loved the band and cheerleaders coming down the hill before the game.




She got so into the game! She watched ever play and taunted the players or officials just like the fans did. It only took her a minute to learn all the cheers and hand gestures and yelled so much I am surprised she is not hoarse this morning. She was a little disappointed they did not put HER up on the "big TV". She was mad to leave. As we walked back to the car she was talking about everything she saw and what she liked and how she dressed like the cheerleaders. We asked her if she was tired from the day and she informed us, "Cheerleaders get really tired and they may need to rest in the car on the way home, but they are not ready to go to bed yet." Tired- she was not! She talked the whole way home. She is already asking when she can go back!
