When we got out of the car to set the cake up, we had gone into overtime, scored a field goal, but Fresno was on the 1/2 yard line about to score a touchdown. I got out of the car and told Jill we had lost.
We got back in the car to head to the wedding, suprised to hear the announcer still on the radio. We had not lost! The game was in the second overtime. We made the short trip to the wedding site and I wanted so badly to stay in the car and skip the wedding, but seeing as Jill wears the pants in my family, I went to the wedding.
Wedding is over in record time. Get in the car. Game is still on! We are now in triple overtime. On the way to the reception, we win by a few points. I tell you, I have never seen an Aggie game like it. On the radio, the crowd was so loud, the announcers were literally having to scream the play-by-play.
I found this related news to be amusing:
Texas A&M Aggies
COLLEGE STATION — Texas A&M's mascot Reveille missed Saturday's triple-overtime victory against Fresno State after she snapped at her cadet handler when he stepped on her tail while running earlier in the week.
Dean Bresciani, vice president for student affairs, said Sunday that Reveille was quarantined at Texas A&M's veterinary school for a couple of days as part of a standard operating procedure but will be back on the sidelines for the Aggies' game with Louisiana-Monroe on Saturday.
Bresciani said the mascot corporal was not hurt but was embarrassed that he stepped on the 6-year-old collie's tail. Reveille VII instinctively whipped around and snapped at the handler when he did that, Bresciani said.
He said the mascot was ``living a life of luxury'' and missed a hot, humid afternoon football game.
Reveille is considered the highest-ranking member of the school's Corps of Cadets and stands at attention in her maroon coat during sporting events and other functions.
