A Beautiful Day in Ann Arbor

Tough day for MSU fans in Ann Arbor. Although I'm not much of a sports fan, I couldn't have had a better day yesterday. I hope the poor MSU fan with the Chevy Truck is a Tigers fan.

My friend AAron kicked off the tail gating around 1:00 pm with, unbelievalbe as it sounds, power drinks and vodka (definitely the lunch of champions). We were quickly joined by Daniel and the three of us, plus Harriet, Hester, and Pearl went in search of the blue balloon.

The Blue ballon is where friends of AArons were tailgating. It took us a few hours to make it through the crowd. The dogs where so good, but of course, they slowed us down. AAron quickly got annoyed by answering all the typical questions that go with walking the girls.

Q: What are they?

A: St. Bernards.

--

Q: How much do they eat?

A: About 45 lbs a week (but the alchohol bill is a killer)

--

Q: What are there names?

A: Harriet (if you were Daniel), Hester (if you where me), and Pearl (if you where AAron)

--

Q: How much do they weight?

A: About 200 pounds

Q: Do you have them all in your house?

A: Dammit, leave me alone.

Well, we eventually found the Blue Balloon and shortly after that the very awesome Nortel party. They actually let us in thanks to my friend Brian. What a great party, besides the Keg, Scotch, and food, they had a band and of course screens to watch the game on. Another huge bonus was we had a continuous supply of water for the girls.

Eventually we were joined by everyone who is cool, including my wife Mary. All around, a great day in Ann Arbor.
