Out of the norm

We went to an Aggie Basketball game, we were playing Montana Western (a small school), and the Aggies always had a big lead in the game. It sounds like a not so great game to be at, but I have never laughed so hard at a game before. First off Thank you to Darrin & Shanna for the tickets!!!

One of the things that totally made Bryson's day was being on the jumbo screen. He was on long enough for him to see himself wave and give a big cheesy smile!!

The game was not packed at all but the atmosphere was still pretty fun and the students of course were hilarious. One of the time outs the cheerleaders and dance squad took up the floor and were taking turns making tumbling passes. It was entertaining, something to pass the time. But as soon as they were done and they cleared from the floor for the game to resume, a rather hefty usher made a little cart wheel on the side of the court. He was probably so surprised at how many people actually noticed him, but the place just roared in cheers for him. I seriously got the best laugh out of that!

At the end of half time the Aggie players took the court and were shooting around. I was watching Tai Wesley as he dunked the ball and was shocked to see the backboard shatter.
Others may have thought that this was a nuisance but I thought it was really interesting to see what happens when things don't go as planned. They wheeled out another backboard to replace it and announce that there will be a 15 minute wait.
It was so fun to see both teams just hanging out, shooting with each other. One player started dancing that got everyone into cheers again.
These two couldn't leave each other alone! They weren't misbehaving, they both enjoyed playing with each other but it was interesting to see how they couldn't leave each other alone for even a few seconds.

The second backboard was getting ready to be lifted when we heard a POP. The second backboard shattered.

I died laughing!! Brady started saying "lets go", but I kept saying "Heck no, this is the most entertainment I have had in a long time"! So we stayed to see what the solution would be. Brady was certain that there was no way they'd have another backboard. The crowd is now chanting "half court game".

They ended up bringing out a practice standard, that got set up rather quickly. The overall delay was 45 minutes, but the game finally resumed.
We did still leave early from the game and I was shocked at the amount of snow that fell in only two hours.
I guess getting out of the norm sometimes can be super fun!
