Some pictures from Auburn

[konofo]

First, disclaimers:  I am not a photographer, my camera is not great, and I was not exactly sober.  I took a ton of shots, and came up with a couple dozen (arguably) worth sharing.  Click thumbs for 1600x1200.

The famed deli, and the view of the stadium from there:

No eagle flight thanks to a little rain before the game, but both came to the sideline to say hi:

Nice pics. And yes, how'd you get those seats??

The ticket acquisition process was something like this:

Degree -> Job -> StubHub

I really enjoyed seeing the game from this vantage point for a change, since I typically wind up around the 10 (at best) when I get to a game.  However, being this low to the ground, it was easy to miss some of the action on the field now and then.  What you couldn't miss from that spot, however, was the eardrum-wrecking volume throughout the last few minutes of the game.  I preferred the prior 20-30 minutes, when we could plainly hear the KSU chants coming from the visitors' section (even over the band playing in the other corner).

any interesting sideline drama?

Not really.  Prince didn't really get in anyone's face, and nobody threw any punches or anything like that. 

ESPN scrambled a camera crew to catch Coffman warming up (I had no idea why at the time).  It was fun watching them dash over to get the shot, but he only took a few snaps.

excellent pics kono.

Thanks.  Hopefully, I'll improve my skills before the Orlando tournament.

Orlando tournament.

I'm actually worried about going to that thing. I think the atmosphere will suck, and I'll be going "why the &@#% did I come?"

All seats are GA, but I'll be early enough.  I can't imagine it being a packed house, considering the timing.

LOL @ you not wanting to go to Auburn because "we'll get killed!"
