Eagles Game

Posted on August 15, 2008

Last night we went to the Eagle’s Game- my first, and JP’s first at the Linc. Even though it was pre-season we were pumped. I drove into the city and picked up JP @ work, then we drove to Chickie and Pete’s for dinner. After a man totally butted in front of me (thanks “Rocco”), we found out there was an hour wait…..no thanks!
We saw a Maggie Moos right next to it so we had ice cream for dinner instead (ah the joy of being a grown up!).

We got to the stadium, which was awesome, and walked around a bit. We went to our seats (which were also awesome) and watched most of the warm up.

The start of the game was exciting and fun, and about 10 minutes into it, it started to POUR!!! We had a huge rain delay with thunder and lightening…

We stood huddled with 8 billion people under a roof and slept with our eyes open while we waited for the rain to stop….
It took FOREVER. Finally we decided to bust out and make a dash for the car. But we were parked like 4857 miles away, so there was no running (I was in flip flops), but on the plus side, we didn’t get struck by lightening. By the time we arrived at the car, we were SOAKED. Thankfully JP’s work clothes were in the car, so I wore his button down shirt and wrapped his undershirt around my hair to stop my bun from dripping freezing water down my back!
