Each Saturday in the fall, Keith sports his"Alabama" shirt and I sport my "Auburn" shirt. When we go out to a store, or the restaurants holding hands, we do get a few good laughs! But we support each other in our beliefs. So two years ago I rounded up tickets and took him to his first Alabama game. And this past summer I made myclaim and said, "this is my year for an Auburn game! I believe its time!" ~~ Little did I know what a great time it would be to go see Auburn play. On two different weekends, we had free tickets dropped in our hands to go see the big Orange and Blue play. And Keith was super supportive!
The first game we went to was an evening game - Auburn vs. South Carolina on Sept. 25th. Mom called me that morning and said, "How would you like to go to the Auburn game tonight!" (FREE! from Grandma's physical therapist who dropped them off at her house that morning - Thank you Nurse PT, and Thank you Jesus!) It's been several years since I've been over to Auburn, and it was Keith's first trip - so we had no clue on where to park. We arrived about an hour early , and drove around for 45 minutes! Fifteen minutes to kickoff we finally snagged a spot in front one of the dorms, the sun had just set and the streets were all quiet because everyone was in the stadium!
We started walking, and kept on walking! Our seats - were way up in the new section at the top of the stadium. We finally arrived in those sweet free seats during the start of the second quarter! Oh yea, I was huffing and puffing up the stairs and ramps. LOL. But it was worth it. The intoxicated guys behind us made it fun for as well taking the photos for us and cheering randomly for the new sophmore player "Lutzenkirtchen" the whole time. "Lutzenkirtcehn" actually made the winning touchdown for his first TD with the Tigers, so we all busted out laughing and every time Keith and I hear "Lutzenkirtchen" - we have to repeat it like those hilarious guy behind us that night -- I love sharing inside joke moments with my hubby.
Here we are that night...
But then the next weekend we got another call from a good friend with tickets to the Auburn vs. Lousiana Monroe mid morning game in Auburn. More fun times @ Jordan Hare Stadium. Again, Keith was a major awesome husband to go and support me. I made sure he had lots of coke and boiled peanuts to keep him happy! :)
More good times with Keith and a few of our friends who love SEC football as much as he does...
Enjoying our great front row seats at Auburn!
{Thank you my sweet husband for making my heart happy this fall

"Lutzenkirtchen, Lutzenkirtchen - Whoo!"
