Football!

Football season is coming up!! I just bought tickets for my first professional game and I am soooooo excited and just needed to share with someone. Is there any other ladies out there that are football fans?

Re: Football!

  • College football fan here.  I'm an Ohio State Buckeye so I love me some football.  I'm hoping for another trip to the National Championship this year and maybe another Heismann too.  We just booked a trip back home for a game.  Can't wait!

  • We're big West Virginia Mountaineer fans!!!! We go to one home game every season, but we haven't decided which game we're going to this year. I never watched football until HH and I started dating, now I'm addicted to college football! lol

  • Huge football fans over here!!  I loved NFL before I met HH.  And I'm OK with college ball, but don't follow it much, except the Iowa Hawkeyes.  Matt knew he had a good catch when I suggested we go to a football game for our first date.  :)  We are super psyched that pre-season is starting in just 10 days!!  We are Chicago Bears fans and I also like the KC Chiefs.  Painful teams to follow, but I love them anyway!!
  • I love college football!!!  GO JACKETS!!!!  We drive to Atlanta to tailgate for Georgia Tech games fairly often.  But living in Alabama, you HAVE to pick either Auburn or Bama, so for my SEC team, ROLL TIDE!!!!

  • I'm already planning the menu for our first football party lol. WVU's first game is Sept 4th and this will be the first time HH and I host a football party (last year we didn't have a house) so I'm REALLY excited =]. Here's what I've got so far

    Chicken Strips with buffalo, bbq, and ranch dipping sauces

    Hashbrown Casserole

    Cheeseball & Crackers

    Chips & Dip

    Somekind of dessert

    Plus I emailed SIL and asked if she would bring something lol I know its 4 weeks away but I can't help it!

  • They ride you out of town on a rail around here if you're not a Steelers fan! We actually spent Sunday afternoon at training camp. Everybody's starting to get psyched, and the jerseys are out again. One of out three people in my town will be wearing a Steelers jersey from now until the end of the season. It goes up to 3 out of 4 on game days.

    I'm looking forward to football season a lot more this year. Matt was a volunteer high school football coach for the last two years, and I was proud of him, but I hardly saw him from late July to Thanksgiving. He told the head coach at the end of last year that he wouldn't be able to do it again; you just can't work 55 hours a week and coach another 25 (and we'd been hoping he'd be in grad school by now).

    This year we can go to games TOGETHER and I'll have someone to sit with and talk to! I hated sitting there alone. I'm hoping that we'll even be able to go to a few college games; the university I work at has a pretty decent football team, and I've never been to one of their games.

  • My parents have season tickets for two AMAZING seats (fifth row, home side, right in the middle of the field) so we get to go every once in a while. Usually to pre-season games since we really aren't THAT into it, and we'd rather give the good tickets to customers. I wouldn't watch football on TV, but I like going to games :) Even though I already forgot how football works.

  • College football.  I'm not a huge fan, but I do enjoy going to the games (Okay, so maybe I mainly enjoy getting dressed up and eating stadium food).  I went to UNC-Chapel Hill and my DH is obsessed with their rival, NC State.  His family has season tickets to NC State football AND basketball games, so I go to almost all of them.

    LOL This is me and MLB! Of course, when your team is the Pirates, usually getting dressed up cute and going to look at the pretty view is the best part of the excursion. Poor Buccos. 

  • RRRRRROOOOOLLLLLL TTTIIIIDDDEEEE!!!! Woooohooo! Love Alabama and my Dad love Auburn HAHA! Its good I live far far away it was like a war in my house when I was a kid!!!

    My DH is a Patriots fan, He is from Mass so you know it goes with the territory and I know its a sad team but I do love my Raiders and I do get a lot of abuse from it but hey I am no band wagon fan! I just cry a lot! Its all about football in my world during the foot ball season!!!

    Bahahahaha!!  This is funny Pamila!  It is my duty as a Chiefs fan to hate the Raiders with a passion, Although I have no idea why.  So this time I will make an exception since it's you.  Cuz I could never hate on a fellow May 2010 Nestie!!

    Thanks Jen I appreciate you being kind to me!!! Oh some of the rivalries I do not understand at all!!!! Football and men I have found can be a crazy. Just like the Auburn VS Alabama thing it is hysterical you are a fan of one or the other period you must make a choice when entering the state of Alabama!! Living in Northern California you have to choose but its not as extreme!!

    Haha... It's like I said, you HAVE to pick one or the other in Alabama!!  At my office on Fridays during football season, all you can see are red and orange shirts.  It's the same thing in Georgia though.  You're either a die-hard Georgia Tech fan or a die-hard UGA fan (grrrrrr........)

  • I am a New York Giants fan all the way. Since I live on the other side of the country I never thought I would be able to go to a game but they are coming to Seattle this year for preseason!! I can't wait to go. And it's two weeks after my 21st bday :) DH doesn't really care about NFL, he's more of a college guy but I am the complete opposite. If I had to choose a college team though it's the Oregon Ducks. Last year we bought tickets for my whole family and we went to the civil war game (oregon vs oregon state) and that was a ton of fun! I am just excited that preseason starts soon!

    LOVE this!!! And you're exactly right...you'd be escorted out of Western PA if you're not a Steeler fan :-)  When I got home from work yesterday, Jake had his Polamalu jersey on...and I bought my annual pair of black and gold Nike's.  Obviously, we're huge Steeler fans and when it's not football season we spend at least some of our daily TV time watching the NFL Network.  The best part about being a Steeler fan not living in Western PA, is that the comradary between Steeler fans you see (almost every day) seems to be even stronger since we're all displaced fans. I get tons of comments about my SYXBRGH license plate :-) 

     What university do you work at? Hubby and I went to and met at Slippery Rock, who had a really good football team when we were there.  I miss going to those games...small school but definitely a blast going to watch every saturday.  

     Otherwise, we watch Penn State...WE ARE!

     I LOVE FOOTBALL SEASON!!!
