Rise and Shout

So, sometime in December I went with my friend Nick to a dinner for his law firm. The conversation when he invited me went something like this...

Nick: So, the firm I'm working for this summer is having a dinner this weekend, and I was wondering if you might come.
Me: Yeah, that sounds great.
Nick: I should probably tell you where it is before you agree to anything.
Me: It's at the U isn't it?
Nick: Well, yeah. It's in the press box at Rice Eccles Stadium.

So now I really do have to think about it. I mean, I hate Utah, with a passion. The whole reason I hate them is because of their football team. And now he wants me to go to a dinner at their stadium? Fortunately he followed with, "We can bring BYU paraphernalia and 'decorate' the stadium if you want to,"

Sold. I bought BYU stickers the next day.

Turns out trying to sneak around the press box at a football stadium and place stickers anywhere and everywhere without being seen by the other hundred people there is kind of fun.


 I don't know why this was so entertaining, but it really was.


If you ever have to go to the U, I hope you take BYU stickers with you. It will make the experience bearable. And also kinda fun.
