Baylor vs OU

Greerson and Daryl attend the Baylor versus Oklahoma game last Saturday. It was a nail biter from the beginning. We normally really enjoy going to the Baylor Football games, but this time the stands were really crowded with Oklahoma fans. We sit on the 50 yard line, but at the very top of the stadium on the studen side. These are normally great seats, but for this game we were in the middle of Baylor fans and OU fans that insisted on commenting about each play of the game and how much better their team was than the other one. At the beginning of the game the band played Texas our Texas and of course all true Texans stood in respect, that is except Greerson. I asked him to stand and he refused because no one else around us was standing. I had to explain to him that they were from Oklahoma  and did not respect the Texas state song. Apparently he has reached the stage of worrying about what other think. We enjoyed the first half of the game, but the tensions began to grow. One Baylor fan heckled a grandfatherly type ( in appearance only) stating, "at least I attended my team's school". This grandfather has managed to clear out the rows all around him due to his language and attitude. We were so crowded we didn't have a good opportunity to escape until halftime started. Greerson decided he wanted to go home and watch the game since there was so much cursing in the crowd. We made it home in time to watch the last half on tv. It was an exciting game right down to the last few seconds.  We were greatful that we didn't stay to witness all of the OU fans lose.
All we have to say is Sic'em Bears!!!! You deserved the win.
