Notre Dame vs. Michigan State



This weekend I attended my very first football game. I was pretty skeptical about going because I’ve never been before and I also don’t like watching football on the T.V.; so when my boyfriend bought me a ticket I wasn’t too trilled. In my mind I can’t stand the fact that when watching it on T.V. you watch maybe 10 minuates of the game for every 15 minuates of timeouts and commercials and standing for all that time sounded positively boring but I accepted the invitation anyways.
            When we first arrived at Michigan State we met up with my boyfriend, Jacob’s family at his fathers companies tent. It started off pretty awkward because I was forced into wearing one of Jacob’s Notre Dame shirts to support his school and the company’s tent was filled with all State fans so the trash talk started pretty intensely for my liking. But, I was very surprised that I enjoyed the game very much.
            At the game Jacob and I were in the Notre Dame student section and it was so much fun to see all the fans celebrating and cheering on their team. I’m not sure if it was the excitement of my first game or that I was with my boyfriend but every moment was filled with excitement and anxiousness. The best part was seeing how proud the Notre Dame fans were to be the first to score against the States defensive lineup. It was an even bigger deal to watch Notre Dame win the game and see how proud Jacob was. It was a good game; maybe I like football after all.
