RTT...20-20 hindsight.

Went to the Bananas game in Kinnick last night. The event itself was amazing. However, I haven’t been to that stadium since a cyhawk game in the Bret Meyer era. That stadium and parking is still a cluster **** epic proportions and one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had. I tried to prep people beforehand how bad it is and they downplayed it. It was even worse than I remembered it.
We had signed up for the ticket lottery for that without knowing the date. When they finally sent us the email I realized that it was over the fourth of July weekend. We had family here, so...never mind.
Was it a fun show? Was it mostly for the kids, or would a couple of seniors like us have enjoyed it as well?
We were at last nights game as well. Maybe it was our seat location in the lower north end zone but I got a headache from the loud music. Game wise it was fun. Parking especially leaving was ridiculous, way worse than Ames. An hour and a half from a lot just north of the stadium to interstate 80.
Yes. And yes you would. Strong recommend.We had signed up for the ticket lottery for that without knowing the date. When they finally sent us the email I realized that it was over the fourth of July weekend. We had family here, so...never mind.

I actually didn’t think the music was as loud on the west side as I was prepared for from reading online. I thought it would be louder, not that it was quiet. It must of been how it was dispersed in there.
Parking literally could not of been worse. No one directing traffic. No sense to any of it. Just a mess. And leaving walking there’s multiple bottlenecks that people got stuck in then morons stopped IN the bottleneck to watch the fireworks. The seats in there are beyond crammed and uncomfortable and the Concourse itself basically a can of sardines on meth.
Fighting depression setting in today. I get forced out of the house for our new parenting arrangement overnight, our anniversary is technically on Tuesday. I just ******* hate all of this.

My 40 yo cousin is dealing with a similar situation. 7+ years of marriage, 4 kids, wife was spotted around with other guys. Pretty sure they filed last year, but I actually haven't heard any updates in a while. Recent Facebook posts show them together with the kids but that just might be for the sake of the kids I don't know.
How many "Go Hawks" did you hear before getting to your car?
Even though they had nothing to do with the event itself.
Just got home. Got about an hour of sleep on the plane from Vegas to DSM otherwise no sleep since yesterday morning.
I was, but apparently to get to DSM from NOLA you gotta go through Vegas.
All but the last night was good. We made the NOLA.com news as we were unable to go into our hotel and had to sit outside for 4 hours or more before they let us in to get our stuff at least.
