Cowboys vs Giants 9.20.09

Sooo, we got to go to the Cowboys vs Giants game last Sunday night. We bought the "party pass" which is only $29 and that means you don't get a seat. It's standing room only on the "party decks". That being said, we knew we needed to get there early to get in line so we could get a good spot. See, we were there to actually watch the game, not drink beer, party, see the stadium, etc... we wanted to be able to see the game!

So, the game started at 7:15pm or 7:30pm... can't remember. We got to the stadium at 11:45am to get in line. We stood, and stood, and stood, and stood... you get the picture... in line until they let us in about 3:15pm (after MUCH confusion by the staff!!!- I won't even talk about how crazy it was!!! I will just say they cause fans to get a little IRATE)

Once we got thru the gate everyone took off to get into the actual building. I got us a spot and had to spread out to save Steve's place. (See, they separate you outside... males in one line and females in the other). So, the men took longer and Steve was further back in line than I was. So, I was VERY GLAD to see him get in the door so I didn't have to fight anyone else off!!!

I wouldn't recommend the party pass!!! It's not worth it. Buy a cheap seat and watch the game on the AMAZING Jumbo-tron!(sp?) Once you're in your spot, you don't want to leave for food, potty, anything because it will be hard to "save your spot". We again stood, and stood, and stood!!!! Watched the entire game, yelled, stood, cheered, stood. Steve never sat down. I did sit down on the floor for about 15 minutes during half time. Overall it was fun and it was a GREAT game! (with the exception of dumb Romo!) Enjoy the pics...

all of those glass windows from top to bottom are actually doors and they opened them up when they opened the roof


before the game started. Here we are at our "seats"!







this is all the people behind us w/ the "party pass". Good thing we got there early enough to get the front row of them... we also had a little ledge to lean on and stuff.

love my hubby!

there were A LOT of people there!!!
Demarcus Ware- I needed a good pic of him! He's the one that signed my hat at Cowboys Training Camp

After the game we went to stay with one of my best friends from college... Karen... and her hubby Jason! We stayed up 'til about 2am having a "midnight snack" and talking/laughing... the usual when we are with them! They are some fun and FUNNY people!!! The next morning before we hit the road back to SA, they made us breakfast!! Thanks Karen and Jason! We miss y'all

We were both so phyically exhausted we stopped in Temple to take a nap because we couldn't make it all the way back to SA!!! I started feeling yucky that night, but thought it was pure exaustion! I woke up Tuesday morning and could tell I was running a fever. We had just recently bought a new thermometer, so of course I expect it to work. Here's what it said my temp was...

Do you see where the "100" mark is.. then see the 4, then the dark line in the middle... let me zoom in closer... see below....
almost 105??? REALLY???? I knew I was sick with a fever, but I wasn't dying or "ER" sick! So, Steve went to the store to get a new thermometer and this time a digital one. Welp... here's what it said...

I mean, how opposite can you get? Needless to say, I couldn't rely on these. I ended up sick at home and then to the doctor. My real temp was 101.1! I've been home all week and this is the first day (Friday) I haven't had a fever! YAY! Anyhoo... I'm wondering if my body was just exhausted from the game and then couldn't recover from the virus that I apparently already had in my body??? Don't know?!?!
