My favorite sport...



... is college football.

And this is the home stadium of "my" team.

There's something magical and very special that happens when we score our first points in a game.  Thousands of balloons are released by the fans, one by one, that float gently up into the sky, carried away in the prevailing breeze to the four corners.  

It's truly a sight to behold.  I don't know of another tradition quite like it in all of college sport. 

Gratitude.  Praise.  Celebration.
