Colts vs. Packers

My friend Kortnee got much sought-after tickets to the Colts vs. Packers game today at Lucas Oil Stadium. I was really excited to finally get into the stadium that I've helped fund with my tax dollars. (Hush, Kort, my taxes really did help.)

 The sheer number of people at the game was astonishing.

 The stadium was really pretty cool.

 We feared that our seats were going to be just terrible but they turned out to be awesome.

 Jackson's seat, on the other hand, left something to be desired. He sat separately because we couldn't find 3 seats together. I think he secretly loved not having to chitchat with me during the game. ;)

THE COLTS!  

Sadly, the Colts won the game. I was rooting for Green Bay to win because I think Colts fan are obnoxious. ;)

We met up with a few of our friends for a few minutes of tailgating before we headed into the stadium. I had to pee so badly that we had to stop in at an Arby's for me to go before we went any further. Kortnee waited outside with Jackson and proceeded to experience my everyday life. Kortnee is the friend that you'll recall helped put together my sports rules list posted a few weeks ago. Kortnee and I are really against mixing teams when attending a game live. While I was inside Arby's dying from the amount of urine in my bladder and the length of the line, Kortnee was outside interrogating a guy wearing a San Diego Chargers jersey to a Colts vs. Packers game. You see, Kort made the mistake of mumbling about his wardrobe choice to Jackson so Jackson called him over for an "interview." The guy actually offered to take off his jersey and give it to Kortnee. Hilarious.

In her final example of my life, Jackson got her a photo with her favorite sportscaster, Dave Calabro. Kort expressed her desire for a photo and Jackson made it happen. She was pretty shocked and excited to actually get the photo opportunity. It was really funny. I tell you, people underestimate how much Jackson takes care of things. There is a reason that I tell Jackson that he can make anything happen. He really does. I love that man. (Most of the time.)

I, of course, took a few videos for your viewing pleasure. The first is to try to show how crowded it was getting into the stadium. The second was to illustrate how LOUD the stadium was when the Colts pulled the upset and beat the Packers.
