My ISU Football Game Experience

For this blog we’re supposed to talk about an event which we’ve attended at ISU this semester. To be completely honest, I’m not very involved in the school at all. During high school, I used to be on different sports teams and a few different clubs. I didn’t mind it at first but by senior year I was so sick of being involved and decided that in college I wouldn’t get very involved at all. I wish I could say I attended at least one basketball game because that’s what I’d like to write about but the only thing I’ve really gone to was one football game at the beginning of the year. The game was towards the end of September and it was the homecoming game against Eastern. I really only attended it because pretty much all of my friends were going to it and someone I knew from Eastern had driven two hours to see the game. So game day came and my friends from all the different dorms (excluding Tri-Towers) met in my dorm room in Atkin-Colby. We walked to the football stadium and ended up getting there early in the second quarter. To my surprise, the game wasn’t all that bad. For the most part it was pretty fun and I got to see a wide range of people from classes, my floor, my home town who I hadn’t seen in a while. The atmosphere was a very fun one. Everyone was getting pretty into it and ISU had a lead for a good part of the game. It was actually a really close game but ISU ended up losing just at the very end. Overall, it was a pretty good experience. For the last part of the blog we’re supposed to say what we learned from it. It’s really hard to say that I learned anything while attending an ISU football game on a Saturday night. I guess I could say that I learned that maybe getting a little involved, just going to sporting events and such at ISU would make the experience better.
