I just received an e-mail with UPS tracking from OU, which had the seat assignment on it . The tickets are not as bad as I feared since our allotment is usually horrid. They are endzone corner seats, Section 112, a dozen or so rows up. Nevertheless, paying face value, sitting with like minded folk, and having a room eight miles away from the stadium at my family member's Marriott employee rate means the dogs still get nice Christmas presents.
"Tickets to the big game, $164.00. Hotel room for two nights, $100.00. Gas $70.00. Being a hillbilly in HuskerLand South...Whee-Haw Priceless."
The hillbillies and the Stepford fans converge on Kansas City, where everything's up to date.
