Go, Terps!

What could top Freaky Friday? Mom tailgaiting at a U.M. football game! Yes, Dad & I went "in style" (in a red & white car, with red & white shirts, with red & white Terp flags flapping on the car) to the Terps football game with Ed & Debbie. Ed used to play at Md. (in fact he was All-American and his name is on a big sign on the bleachers). He then went on to play for the L.A. Rams & retired from the Canadian League. SO, he's got season tickets and they are really into it! We had alot of fun. Tailgaiting is another "new world" for me! Out of their trunk came a little "fire pit", coolers, chairs (Terp ones), a table, and crock pots! We had a feast! We had 2 hours to "camp" before the game. I saw canopies & grills, & smelled hamburgers cooking while we sat around our "campfire"! If I had known, I would have brought s'mores! Debbie's son, Josh, comes sometimes and even brings a TV to watch the pregame shows! He has shelves in his truck that pull out, JUST for tailgaiting. Then, their was the game! Cheerleading has certainly changed! 24 girls and 3 guys backflipping and back handspringing all over the side lines! I learned some new dance moves and think I memorized some of the dance team moves! And for you men, there was even a football game to watch! I saw some of it, but there was far too much else to watch! And as I sat there, I said, "Wish I had my camera". Could have posted some pictures! Look what you started, Erin & Chelle!
