WVU vs Oklahoma State

Richard and I went to the game today, using the tickets I won a couple of weeks ago.  I will put pictures in the next couple of posts I write.  Anyway, we left home just before 6 am on the way to Morgantown.  Kickoff was scheduled for 12 noon.  It was dark and there was intermittant fog the whole way, 2 hours and 41 minutes.  When we got there we gassed up, $3.30 a gallon.  We started up toward the stadium and there was a parking lot so we pulled in.  We paid $25 to park and then sat in the car for about an hour and a half.  Then we walked up the hill and got lost.  We followed a bunch of people who were not going to the stadium right then.  We finally got our bearings but meanwhile we walked a l-o-n-g way.  We got to our seats (in the nosebleed section) and I told Richard I was not going back down until the end of the game.  Long story short, the home team won the game, against all odds.  Loved the band, called the Pride of West Virginia.  WVU wanted everyone to wear gold to the game and nearly everyone did.   We bought a frozen lemonade at half-time for 5 bucks.  It was sure good but everything cost that much.
