C-L-E-M-S-OOO-N!!

Well, after much harrassment, nagging, excitement, and anxiousness all week, the big game finally happened. More importantly, the Tigers beat the Hokies! For those that don't know, my dad is a die hard Virginia Tech Hokie fan and alum. My brother, Josh, and I are all pretty hard core Clemson fans and alum, and on any other day of the week, we are Hokie fans too. However, on this day (that we have been anxiously awaiting and planning for 4 years now) Dad was on his own. (except he had Mom on his side) So my mom, dad, brother, Danica, Uncle Dan, Josh, Tillman, and I all met up together in Virginia this weekend for the highly anticipated game. We had a blast, although the weather was a bit challenging at times. We walked around VA Tech's campus, visited the bookstore, went to dinner with my cousin Rachel and her roommate, went to Roanoke, ate at The New Yorker, tailgated, went to the game, and got together for a nice breakfast Sunday morning. Here are a few pictures to sum up the weekend. And what a wonderful weekend it was!! GO TIGERS!! :) :) :)

Some very interesting Hokie fans at the tailgate

Welcome to Lane Stadium

We loved these tuba players! They were full of energy and having a good time. Here, they are circling around the traffic guard playing the tuba and making up a chant about him. It was cute and entertaining.

The PERFECT souvenier from Tony & Danica's trip to Vancouver, Canada - tiger mittens!!! I HAD to wear them to the game!!

Enter Sandman - Here come the Hokies

Clemson & VA Tech's marching bands playing together - I've never seen this before and thought it was a nice gesture.

Fireworks at halftime - Tech hadn't been using them throughout the quarter and didn't want them to go to waste :)

Dad participating in the Hokie tradition for a "key play"

This made for one happy Tiger fan! :)

I love this one, and the man behind the camera (Josh)

Ready for gametime

Tillman crawled up on the luggage cart this morning. I guess she was telling us she was packed and ready to go.

Silly girl - And she's still wearing her Clemson gear!
