The Ducks

In twenty minutes I'm headed to Autzen Stadium to watch Oregon play. I'm not really an Oregon fan--being that I hail from southern California and all--but my father-in-law got tickets and I figured that since they have as good a shot as anyone at taking the championship this year, I should probably go watch them play.

It's cold. It'll probably rain.

I'm wearing a Chargers t-shirt, a sweater, a hoodie, a ski jacket, three pairs of socks, a scarf--thanks to my sister-in-law, gloves, and a hat. I have a rain parka, courtesy of my brother-in-law. I'm also taking a blanket even though I'll have to haul it a mile and a half each way from wherever we're parking.

I'll probably still freeze.

Anyway. Go Ducks! (I don't really personally care, you know, but I also don't want to get beat up by any crazy Oregonians* for saying, "Go Whoever's On Offense!")

*Read: My inlaws. I'm staying with some serious duck fans and I do not want to have to sleep with one eye open tonight.

  1. I think it goes without saying that I am also wearing pants. And shoes.

  2. How fun! We watched some of it on tv tonight. Hope you didn't freeze & had a good time!

    Good idea to wear pants btw. Though Donald was a pantsless duck, I'd imagine it's still frowned upon at sporting events.
