No, I don't mean the Gamecocks....they DID win (more on that later), but I'm referring to me and Ben! In the car waiting to park,we set a little wager with Ron.....Ben and I thought we could find 5 people (that we didn't already know were going to be there....Mike and Leigh didn't count...this had to be random spottings) that we knew. Ron said, "no". Well, Ben and I didn't just find 5, we found 9!
First, tailgating three cars away was Sherrie from Spartanburg that I used to teach with at Madden.
When Ben and I headed over to the Gamecock Village, we ran into the McDowell's (2) from Boiling Springs.
As we were leaving the Iron Mountain tailgate spot to start looking for tickets, I ran into Elizabeth from Discovery Council.
While saying "bye" to Mike and Leigh and waiting on tickets, we ran into the Sanders (4), a family we knew from Boiling Springs.
And, then during the 3rd quarter, I realized that on the row in front of us was the PE teacher that was at Boiling Springs last year!
9 people!
What did we win? We haven't decided yet, but it will be something Gamecock!

That is so cool! It doesn't surprise me that so many people from Boiling Springs were there! I am surprised you didn't spot Dr. Menzer, his wife, and daughter. Kate is a freshman at Carolina this year. After reading this post, I'm trying to talk Craig into coming one Saturday to tailgate (and then find tickets) to a game. I think the kids would LOVE it - and so would I!! Thank you for the sweet comments about Mikayla's cake. I think I need to learn how to make many more before I start looking at it as a second career - LOL!
hmmmm....... what did you win? I think you should make it a cash award. If that doesn't fly you can always resort to chocolate!
