Big 10 Football Tour

Well I spent the last few weeks working the phone and email and as a result of my efforts, I now have 2 tickets to the Rose Bowl.  Even better, I also got a free $40 parking pass! 

The tickets are pretty impressive, standing 8" tall and 3.5" wide.

Attending the game with me will be Josh McCormick, who attends the University of Oregon and came up with the Big 10 Tour logo before the season even began.  It'll be nice to reward with with a seat at the game after all of the work he put into creating the logo you see on the home page.

So I still have the obstacles of getting to the airport on time, the cooperation of the Milwaukee weather, and a few other potential hangups. 

It should be one heck of a week out in California.  Follow my progress on Twitter, Facebook, or simply by reading the Rose Bowl recap page. 

My mother sent me the very appropriate gift shown below, and I hope that everyone else received what they wanted for the holidays!  Happy New Year!
