Most Phenomenal Day Ever!
We arrived in Seattle, one of my very best friends, LungFung was staying there with her husband who works for CableCam, the fellas (and gals, I'm sure) who set up all the camera stuff for the games. We met at her hotel, and parked our rig there because it was $16 compared to $40-$50 near the stadium!!! Crazy!!! This is what we saw as we were coming into town...
as you probably all know, my not-so-secret crush is Matt Hasselbeck! Yummy!
Anyway, we hung with Lungfung for a bit, I got a really great pic of the two of us, but she didn't want me to post it, so in the spirit of annonyminity, here ya go...
We got to the stadium and the crowd was amazing! Tons of people, super loud, a totally new experience for me! The game was awesome (they won, 20-10) and all in all it was a great day, except for the part about the Hub waiting in line thru the entire half-time to get me a beer, and as soon as he got up to the counter, they said "NO MORE SALES!" that sucked, but I stayed sober through the game, so I guess it was a good thing.
I bought this crazy hat, it's got like, fleece dreadlocks on it, and while the Hub and I were walking to meet Lungfung after the game, I got stopped by the news lady... Now, my husband has always said, "If the news ever wants to talk to you, say no! People always look foolish on the news!" Alas, I didn't say no, so all of Seattle probably thinks I'm a freak! Every questions she asked me, I turned and looked directly into the camera! Hi, dork! She asked where I got the hat, I told the camera "At the game!" she asked why I would wear such a hat, I told the camera "to get on TV, did it work?" (duh) she asked if being cold and wet was worth it (it rained the whole time) and I told the camera "Oh yeah, I told my husband I would sit naked in the snow to see the SEAHAWKS!"
So the moral of the story is, NEVER TALK TO THE NEWS! And when you see folks on there, remember, maybe they are just dorky cause they're on the news, they're probably regular folks like you and me, but the freak comes out when you have a camera and a mike shoved in your face and you've been screaming at a football game for 4 hours! Just a tip.
