We stopped by D-man’s residence hall so he could change and off we went to the stadium (a 1.2 mile walk). It was a great day for a football game. We enjoyed taking in the festive atmosphere and walking through the tailgating lot. We also took a souvenir photo before heading into the stadium.
It was a pretty dull game for three quarters, but the RedHawks worked to make it exciting in the 4th quarter. Unfortunately, they could not score the much needed touchdown to walk away with a victory. But, we all enjoyed the fanfare of a live game and cheering them on as they tried.
We walked through campus with a quick stop at Tappan Hall before heading back to Richmond. We did a quick drive down High Street (the main drag), which was popping with the Uptown Festival (and the many bars). However, we didn’t want to fight the crowds especially with D-man under the weather.
Instead, we grabbed dinner at Wings and Rings (had had no wait and unfortunately not traditional wings, but they did have sports on TVs). Back at the hotel, we watched football and set out the felt I brought and played Euchre (D-man and I won the best 2 outta 3). The time with just the four of us was so great - I just wished D-man felt better.
