My best friend is a UT fan. He wants me to go to the game with him in Pasadena. He will pay for the ticket (40 yd line, $500 ticket). It is a players ticket, not that means anything. He is going to pay for the ticket, rent-car, and any incidentals. I have to come up with the plane ticket ($360). I need some sane advice. Should I go??
Uh-huh! There it is. Rolling in the pig **** with the UT-pigs. Seems to me a key question is: Will you be cheering for TX? If you cheer on Bama from those players' seats, good on you. I say you can attend in good consciense. If you have to cheer for TX....
If he is ok with you cheering Bama......GO. If not, say thanks but I refuse to sell my soul to attend a MNC game. Personally.....I went to the MNC game last year and if your team doesn't win, its not that great. But if Texas wins, it would be puke inducing.
Surely, he must know that you're not a Whorn fan? Therefore go, and cheer for Bama! If you don't, I will!!
Go, what a opportunity. I was invite to the same stadium one year. UCLA was playing Big 12 buffalos. Being a Big 12 fan (except tx) I was for the Buffs to win but was polite and acted like a UCLA fan. Really easy pretending to be a UCLA fan. All you do it sit there, once in a while a cheer U C L A and text some on the phone. But go, root for TX but underneath hope they lose BIG TIME!!
If I was in your shoes and the money is there for the plane ticket.... I'd explain I was flying out to attend the game. Attend the game wearing Oklahoma Unveristy clothing and do not cheer for either Bama or Texas in the game but enjoy all the championhip game festivities..... oh one other thing..... tell you friend you refuse to wear burnt orange and stop and buy a can of lighter fluid and a lighter to show him you mean business....
Here's what I would do.... I'd tell my friend I'm in. Then I would to Cali and party my balls off! I'd show up to the game feeling kinda lit, and really wouldn't give two squirts of p!$$ on the outcome. Enjoy the nice warm wheather along with some nice cold adult beverages. Come on it's Cali, you'll have a great time.
Hell I'd go. Wear your Sooner gear, cheer for whomever, and make sure to yell, "BOOMER" every so often so we can hear you.
