Rise and Shout! (takes on a whole new meaning now)
What a game...it was pretty crazy intense. Thanks to Andrea and Nate who had extra seats in the student section and little to no quams about breezing past the "security" asking for all sports passes, we had some amazing seats! So there were some pretty loud moments in the marriott center-one of which is linked above...seriously, i don't know what henderson was thinking would happen if he tried to pull that in the marriott-i mean...come on, you've just made thousands of enemies in one second. It was ridiculous how loud it got and how quickly-I began to see how mob mentality works, haha. Just pure rage in the student section. I hope he's a senior cause it will SUCK for him to come back in the Marriott center in the future-we're talking heckling up the wazoo.
Anywho, mom watched on tv and said that it was amazing how loud the crowd was at times-and to think if everyone came to every game they could all be that exciting...but never as enjoyable as beating utah 8)
The coach was driving us crazy-i think he was on the court more than some of his players-he just would not get off the court and the student section kept chanting "Give him a T" everytime he started to cry to the refs-argh, sooo theatrical, no wonder Henderson got all emotional and hot headed-look at their coach.
We came out victorious in the end and my voice is waaaay tired 8)

Is my face red? Not a good day to be a University of Utah alum!
ReplyDeleteI did not lose my voice until the last 43 seconds (and the resulting 7 minute break). I have a buddy who was waving around a sign that said something about Max Hall and how Utah sucked, and one of the General Authorities made it a point to send one of their security agents over to ask him to take it down.
ReplyDeleteSecurity Agent: "I thought it was clever, but Brother ______ thinks you should put your sign down..." and then a brief lecture about respect or representing oneself or something.
haha, yeah...I'm just waiting for the talk on sportsmanship and loving your enemies next general conference 8)
ReplyDeleteYeah ...that would be a good talk. Unfortunately the ones who need to hear it the most (Utah players and fans) probably won't be listening!!!
ReplyDeleteoh snap- count it!
