Morning of the game, we shook off our hangovers from the night before andwe were all set to go! We had the trucks packed down for tailgate mania. When we got to the game, the lines for the parking lot were backed up down the freeway. Trying to get to our coveted spot, we made a detour trying to get into the stadium quicker. The plan back-fired on us and we ended up on the complete opposite end of the stadium, and separate from each other. After spending 4 hours in the car, we missed our tailgate extravaganza...and endless opportunities for pictures by me! :( Needless to say, we were all a little bitter and had to have a few drinks to catch up fast....trying to get in a good mood before heading into the stadium! After we got in, we quickly forgot about the parking lot disaster and had a blast! The game was great....because we took the lead early and kept it thru the game. The Chargers played like a playoff bound team!
Since there was a big group of us, we sat kinda scattered but in the same general area. Nana slept most of the beginning of the game...aren't kids amazing! Andrew slept most of the second half. Drake watched intently and decided that he was faster than LT....not hard to beat these days! So, it got him pumped to play football again...which of course we love!!
To top off the game, afterwards when the players go back into the tunnel, one of the Chargers came up and gave Drake both of his gloves. If you know Mom and Dad's seats, they are right above the opponent's tunnel....so Chargers rarely come over to that side. We were pretty lucky! Anthony Waters, a linebacker, picked out Drake from way out in the field...and came right up to hand over his gloves. So exciting for a little guy!!!! :)
