Game Day

I must work today for LSU's home game against Miss. State. I do, however, have a plan to see the game. I woke up this morning at about 350 A. M. and went to Wal-Mart to buy an adapter for my small hand-held TV. I will get to see the game. I know it is just State, but I don't like to miss any game. I'll be looking forward the whipping the Tigers are going to give the Bulldogs today.


On a side note. I did get tickets to the Alabama game this week. I was able to secure the tickets from an unlikely source. . . the Alabama Athletic Department. Mrs. Purple Tiger and I will be in the middle of the Crimson Tide faithful in Death Valley. Not my ideal situation, but I take the tickets as I can get them until I am able to somehow acquire season tickets. (long shot, I know)

My brother-in-law is from here and now lives in Orlando. His best friend there is an Alabama Alum and they attend the 'Bama and LSU contest every year. Somehow, he was able to get tickets for my wife and I for the game in Tiger Stadium. This is the second or third time he has been able to get tickets for an LSU game for me. I even had tickets to the Florida game in The Swamp if I had been able to make the trip. I am extremely grateful to him for all he has done to feed my LSU football fix. THANKS JEFF!

I'll be in Tiger Stadium in spirit today. Geaux Tigers.
