We Came, We Saw, We Lost...

A few weeks ago, Michael and I attended the Southwest Classic game against the Texas A&M Aggies and the Arkansas Razorbacks at the new Texas Cowboy stadium. The weather didn't fully cooperate with us, but we made the best of it. Thank goodness for the Baird's tailgate tent! Not only did it help keep us dry, but Lacey's mom and Mikey's mom both made lots of yummy food for everyone. There was also no shortage of beer!

Let me just say, the new stadium definitely lives up to it's name and it guess everything really is BIGGER in Texas! If you haven't had a chance to attend a game or event at the stadium yet, add it to your list of things to do! The giant T.V. screens alone make this a sight to see.

The Aggies started strong, but we didn't get the win. We had so much fun hanging out with our Aggie friends and I hope the Southwest Classic game becomes a tradition. Until next year Hogs...

The field


Jerry Jones is a Razorback alum and the architect (in khaki) of
the new stadium is a Former Aggie...I think this is how the
Southwest Classic game became a reality.
