This is seriously the best and my most favorite time of the year. The way that Lorelai in Gilmore Girls feels about snow in the winter is exactly how I feel about football season in the fall. I love that so many people come together for the sole purpose of supporting the same thing. It's a time when I happen to run into quite a few people I went to school with and see friends that I haven't seen in a while. Also standing in the stadium when Swoop rides through the field on the motorcycle and the football players follow is one of the best feelings ever.
On September 3rd Utah kicked off the start of their season with a game against Michigan. This was a huge game to have in Utah and it was even the second most in demand ticket for college football that week. This year Emily and I actually became official season ticket holders, but we have been selling our tickets for those seats while we can still be in the MUSS.
Emily is on the MUSS board this year so she got killer seats on the front row, as for me I joined a huge group of friends just a few rows up. It's not front row but it's definitely still amazing!
This group is so much fun to be a part of. We were all in a group my junior year and I am so happy I get to be with them again! It took us 3 tries to get a good picture, but eventually we got one with all of us smiling.
The best is at the end when the football players come to the MUSS and sing the fight song with us! We beat Michigan 24-17 and Utah State 24-14. Sadly I don't have any pictures from that game!
