Boom Goes the Dynamite

Last night Sam, Devan and myself went to the BYU/Utah basketball game up at the Huntsman Center. After hurrying to get ready, eating in the car, picking up Sam, finally finding a parking space in front of the Stadium, and jogging/speed walking for what felt like 5 miles we finally walked through those crimson doors to root on our Cougars. After a slow first few minutes our cougars started to pull away. One of the highlights of the game was right before half time. Jimmer got the ball with 4 seconds left in the first half. He was able to make it half court and then through the ball up. Of course...it swooshed in in true Jimmered fashion. I believe the end score was BYU 104, Utah 79. The only down side to the whole night was that we wished Garald could have been with us. The dad would have really enjoyed not only watching Jimmer score 47 points, but also, Jackson Emery broke the steals record set by Danny Ainge back in the early 80s. Oh, and in case anyone was wondering...we were as obnoxious as non home team fans can be. My favorite chant of the night was "This is our house." I also really enjoyed the end of the game when the running Ute fans were running away from their defeat and all of the BYU fans sang the cougar fight song. Here are a few pics of our evening.
