What a fun game! The weather wasn't the best. It rained all afternoon and stopped right before the game. It sprinkled a little during the game but not too bad. Grandpa, Mindy, Anna and I came to this game. We didn't bring any rain gear because the weather report said it was suppose to be nice. Don't believe them....come prepared! We were scrambling trying to find something to keep dry. We ended up with clearance rain jackets from Eddie Bauer and garbage bags. I must say we did stay pretty day and warm.
My old (I hesitate to say that) roommate from college lives in Sacramento. So Anna and I met her for lunch. It was so fun reminiscing about old times and catching up. It's hard to believe those days were 35 years ago....where does time go?
We trailed the whole game. Our defense was having a hard time stopping them. We kept getting penalties at critical times. We were behind by 8 points. We were moving the ball with just a few minutes left. Cantu, our quarterback threw two interceptions, one which the defender returned for a touchdown. I thought we were beaten and then Sac. St. had two penalties called on the two interceptions that gave us back the ball. We scored with 30 sec left on the clock. We had to go for two to try and tie the game. Cantu threw to the front corner of the end zone. The receiver fell down and and the defender reached up and tipped the ball. Griff came from the back of the end zone reached out and grabbed the ball and fell into the end zone for two points! It was sooooo exciting. We were all jumping and screaming. We went in to overtime and won with a field goal. It was an awesome win!
We were model material with our garbage bags....okay we look more like bag ladies!
