The kids experienced their 1st ever NU game yesterday. I had them completely fooled. They didn't know I had tickets, so I told them that we would just go down there and experience the game day atmosphere, and then go watch the game on the big screen next to the stadium, or just go to a resturaunt or something. The 15 yr old wasn't crazy about the idea, but didn't want to hurt my feelings and went anyway. You should have seen the look on their faces when I started walking up to the gate and they were wondering what the hell I was doing.....Dad wins again. Instead of a blog, I'll post the pictures (There's a lot of them), and put a brief comment on each. Enjoy, I did!!

Two observations: 1) The photo of the boys with the Marines is priceless. 2) Based on the date in the camera, you were at Applebee's on Wednesday, August 24. You were one day late for Tuesday ladies' night. :lol:
I let the boys pick Doc....plus Barry's and Misty's, etc. are always crammed packed. BTW, we ate Runzas for breakfast before we left Columbus thank you very much.
Thanks Sid!! We changed batteries before we left, I didn't think about changing the date when I started snapping shots.
GOD IS WEARING THE RED BLASER AND TAN SLACKS IN THIS PICTURE. WHERE THE HELL IS THAT CORNHEAD COMING FROM?
I had the same issue with my video camera. Like you, I discovered it after I had shot the video. Unlike you, I did not have my "friends" available to call it to my attention. :lol:
