Jeff was lucky enough to get tickets to a Monday Night Football game on November 29, 2010 (a nice late birthday present – too bad it wasn’t from me…..) AZ Cardinals vs. San Francisco 49ers. I really wanted to go, but also didn’t want to find a babysitter for that late of a school night and pay for both tickets plus a babysitter. The Farris family was kind enough to watch our kids for us on a non co-op night. Thank you!!
The Cards have a former BYU QB Max Hall on their team and I was hoping to get to watch him play – no such luck.
While the game was a total bust (Cards lost 24-3 and went through 3 QB’s), the crowd around us did not disappoint. Security was called at least 6 times within 15 minutes – just goes to show that alcohol and a losing team are not a winning combination.
There were pros and cons to a live game.
Pro: You get to be there and watch the game
see all the action that goes on during commercials on TV
enjoy the game atmosphere.
Con: I don’t get to fast forward during long time-outs and half-time
I’m sitting too close for comfort to other people. Thankfully most left by half time for the Beer Garden. 
TV gives us a closer view of the game and instant replays
It was a lot of fun to spend time with Jeff – just us and no worries about the kids with a babysitter. Thanks again Farris’!
Haha! Just realized I have no pictures of the actual game – it was that bad! And it was cold in there, even at the top of the stadium – we were right under the air vents.
And I can’t remember who performed at half-time, but there’s a picture of it – wahoo!
