Well, seems odd to write this post.
Last year, I was bragging about dad being honored on the field for being a long time season ticket holder.
This year, we will miss our first home opener, ever.
Dad has had some problems with his kidneys this week. He is scheduled for a CT scan. My sister (a nurse) seems to think it's kidney stones. Regardless, he is in a lot of pain and we don't want to be far from home (Sand Springs- about 2.5hrs away) and him have a pain attack and be standing there miserable in the north endzone and have to walk back to the car, etc.
You know he's in pain when he agrees (without argument) to watch the game from home. So, just like we did for the Sugar Bowl, we'll have a little party at his house and watch our Sooners kick some a**.
For those of you going, please yell loudly! We want to hear you!! My cousin is going to use the tickets so at least we know we have some rabid fans in our seats.
Boomer Sooner!! and hopefully we're there for the Tennessee game.
