Boiler Blackout

Heres a picture I took at the game. Look at all that black. Boil up!

On Saturday, I went to my first Purdue football game! What an experience it was. I was pumped for the game not only because we played a team from the state I'm from, but also because I know how bad Eastern is at football. Waking up about 4 hours after going to sleep, I threw on a black Purdue football shirt and made my way to meet up with some friends. After getting bored of seeing intoxicated underage college kids fighting to get as much beer from the keg as they could, me and my friends walked to the stadium. (I freaking love how everyone dresses up for Breakfast Club) Sweating profusely after the 843758947 mile hike up the hill to Gate E, we were finally there! The cheerleaders, band, and everyone had so much energy for the game. I searched the field for my friend who's a cheerleader but had no luck in finding her little 95lb body! We were doing pretty amazing when all of a sudden, that black cloud came over us and it starting pouring rain. My phone, camera and gum all got soaked, including myself, but it was awesome to watch the game while getting drenched. We left at halftime and went to Ford to eat. I grabbed some hot chocolate since it was freezing in the dining hall and conversed with everyone about how much fun I had even though the game got delayed and we left. Purdue ended up winning (by a lot) and thanks to the win, I got 35% some Purdue gear at the University Bookstore today, which is pretty rad. Although my parents are going to be here next weekend for family day or something, I'm still super excited for the football game. There is one down side to football this weekend; Da Bears lost to the Chargers yesterday. Oh well, it was the first game!
