Mr. Rellim and I met my dad in Champaign last night for the opening game of the football season. Just as we arrived, a severe storm blew in, trapping us in football purgatory. Stadium staff would not let us stand outside the doors and would not let us take our seats. We were corralled like cattle, restricted to wandering in the concession/souvenir areas for nearly three hours.
Not one to give up on a live game, we could not convince Mr. Rellim to leave when the storm finally ended. To keep our spirits up, Mike said, "The game will start soon. See all those people running to their cars? They will be re-drunk soon and we will have fun!
The other great thing was when we received an impromptu personal serenade by The Other Guys.
