Tony's step mom got him 2 tickets to the Colts/Packers game yesterday. He's a huge packers fan and this was his first time seeing them
So, I'm not trusting google maps anymore!! Shouldn't they know if there is massive construction going on and not send you down that route??! We went through so many detours and were in towns I never even knew existed!! By the time we got through the slow moving detours we were at Kokomo...right where all the traffic lights start. Then after we got to Indy we hit horrible traffic, even worse once we got on the road the hotel was on. People walking to the game were moving faster than us. Had we left when I wanted to and not 1 1/2 hours later we would have avoided some of that. By that time I was getting pretty crabby from the driving, I hadn't eaten all day and we never stopped for a bathroom break. I can SEE the hotel....it's right there, but traffic won't move for what feels like forever.
Finally get there and the valet takes the truck. We get to the room and we're checking out the awesome view (22nd floor) and we can see the stadium, it's like right across the street!
Took forever to find our seats, we missed the first touchdown while we were looking for the escalators. There was about an even mix of Colts fans to Packers fans. I was surprised at how full the game was for being preseason!
We were WAAAAYYYYYYY up there!!
It was a pretty exciting game~! When it got towards the end and they were tied I started getting a little panicky that we would go into overtime and I had to go to the bathroom soooo bad, plus I still hadn't eaten all day. The Pack pulled through in the last 3 seconds and I've never seen Tony so happy.
I love this picture
I did get video of the win but when I uploaded it there was no volume and it just isn't the same without hearing the roar!
After we went to the Ugly Monkey for drinks and some food finally! Food was great for bar food at 1 AM but the drinks....expensive! Thought the $10 pitcher was a good deal until I saw the miniature pitcher we got. I put my PV in the pic for size comparison
After watching the police stuff an extremely drunk guy into a cab and send him home we strolled back to the hotel just in time to see a fight break out....that was our sign, it was time to call it a night. A LONG night!!
I'm just so happy for Tony that he finally got to see a Packers game, and they won~!
and now I'm exhausted from driving 300 miles
