Challenge Week Two: What to do in the ATX

It is a warm Saturday in November in Austin, Texas and you are looking for something to do. There is no better option than to go to a Texas Longhorn football game.

The first reason you should go to a game at Darrell K. Royal Stadium is the tailgating and pre-game festivities. Barbecue pits are set up everywhere while friends are tossing around the football. Everyone is dressed up in their burnt orange ready for the game. TVs are set up in the beds of trucks to watch even more football. Be sure you get a nice, juicy sausage wrap before the game. As you walk into the stadium, students lead Texas Fight chants and everyone is fired up for some football. The tailgating is one of the best parts about UT football games.

Another reason you should go to a Texas football game is the atmosphere once you are in the stadium. Once you find your seat, you realize how huge the stadium is and how beautiful it is. Soon, the Horns come out of the tunnel and the crowd is going crazy. Once the game starts, you can’t help but cheer for UT, even if you aren’t a fan. Then, Texas scores. Touchdown! The huge cannon fires and the stadium erupts with enthusiasm. I love Texas football games because of the atmosphere.

After reading this, when you come visit Austin, be sure to go to a Texas football game.you will have a great time and see one of the greatest things about the heart of Texas. Hook ’em Horns!!!

Super Bowl XLVIII

As I’m sure you know, the 48th Super Bowl is this Sunday in New York/New Jersey. This matchup features the Seattle Seahawks and the Denver Broncos. These teams are very diverse from the other, but they are both still the two best teams in the NFL.

Denver has the best offense in the league, while Seattle has the best defense in the league. Both teams have great quarterbacks, but Peyton Manning is older and Russell Wilson has looked up to him as he has grown as a QB. Although Denver is favored by 2, many people have mixed predictions on how the game will turn out.

My favorite team in the NFL is Denver, so I will be pulling for them. My dad grew up watching and cheering for the Broncos, so I just followed him. Like most Denver Bronco fans, my favorite player is Peyton Manning, the best QB this year.

I’m very excited to see how this game goes and I’m sure you are too. GO BRONCOS!!!!!!!

The Boys of Fall

Now that school has begun, so has something else. I really enjoy this time of year, especially the weekends. I can just sit on the couch and watch something that I love, football. The craziness and excitement of college games on Saturday, and the intense NFL games on Sunday. Then, I have my middle school games on Monday. Something about playing under the lights at a huge stadium in Austin, Texas is so much fun. When it’s time for a football game, everything in my mind like schoolwork just goes away and all I can think about is football. A football game or practice is something I look forward to almost everyday. It doesn’t get better than football season.
