Y'all. This post is obviously a little after the fact..
BUT OMG WE ARE NATIONAL CHAMPIONS!?!?!?!?!
Seriously, I am still so EXCITED about UK winning.
It was one of the more amazing weekends I have ever had in my life.
I went up on Friday evening, and spent the whole weekend in Lexington with some of my best friends!We also put together a fun little surprise for my hubby (Snookums) who is currently deployed.
We made an awesome life size cardboard cutout of Snookums, and brought him to the game with us!!
Saturday we got to Two Keys bright and early, as they opened at 10 am and scored the best table in the house: The PacMan table!
I kind of love this photo. ^^^^
Yes. I am a goofball.
We took a couple pics with "Snookums" and his friends, as well as with Two Keys in the background.
I posted them to Facebook, tagged him in the photos and waited to hear his response.
HE LOVED IT!!!
He said he even sat there for a minute and was like, wait, when did I take that picture?!
hahaha. We even fooled Snookums.
Two Keys was such a good time. I got to see a bunch of people I hadn't seen since our wedding or even before! We had the best seats in the house to watch our team whip up on UL and win!!!
It was a packed house, over a 1000 people crammed into Two Keys, to the point that they had to stop letting people in a few hours before the game! Riot police lined up outside during the last quarter, and they shut down Limestone.
When we won, the place went CRAZY!!! Drinks were flying, people were dancing on tables, jumping, crowd surfing, running, dumping water, beers, screaming, crying, it was NUTS. Shortly after winning, everyone poured out onto Limestone and just ran around celebrating!!
It was out on Limestone that I got interviewed by ABC 36 about Snookums' picture, and why I had it :)
I am so GLAD now that I have that on video. (Even if I do look a little rough from all day in Two Keys!)
It really was one of the BEST days of my life. Just so FUN and so HAPPY! I wish terribly that I could have had my Snookums there with me, of course, but it felt great to just be free, not worry and be
happy for a day!
hahaha. not the best photo of everyone.. but still hilarious! ^^^
There was a lot of drama on a lot of media outlets about how we were "rioting" around Lexington. It makes me so sad that we looked so bad on the news. There were definitely some people who took advantage of the situation and did some dumb things, but most of us were just celebrating and HAPPY!!!
I have a TON more pictures from the night of the UofL game as well as the Final Game celebrations!
I also have some awesome video I will be sharing the next few days!! (including my interview with the news!!!)
SOOO EXCITED!!
GO CATS!!!
SO GLAD IT'S 8PRIL!!!
