College Football Games

Content by Mitch Osborne

When football season comes around, that is the only time that my husband and dad have anything in common to talk about. When football season starts, you can't change the channel on the satellite TV from because "If it's not football, we're not watching it". I don't have any idea what any of the conferences are called or the names of the plays or moves like my husband does, but I do love the happy dances that the players do when they score. We used to go to the games when I was still in college, mainly because we could get tickets cheaper. Since that time, we just watch the games at home which is fine with me. I can be in the comfort of my own home while we watch the game.

My husband still has to dress up in his jersey, hats, scarves and every other piece of Husky apparel that he owns to watch a game. If he has friends over, they all end up with painted faces to sit in front of the television. I just stay in the kitchen and keep the snacks and beers coming. I prefer it that way. This year, my husband and his friends are getting a real treat-- all of us wives are sending them to a game so we can go Christmas shopping without complaints of how much we spent.
