The biggest mistake of my life

[mtbray]

I got kicked out of the Rose Bowl for being too drunk and being passed out in the stands.


I just got back so I'm pretty tired. I think I'll go cry myself to sleep now. (not kidding)

Dude...are you serious????

[Dragon20]

That is so sad. As Hommer would say Doouff.

[CyFallsMom]

But you GOT there - meanwhile, most of us were watching it on TV. I would have even liked to have been watching it outside the stadium on TV if I had to!!!

[mtbray]

Dude...are you serious????

Unfortunately yes I am.


My mom didn't understand my current mood and state. She thinks it's about the money, but it's not. I missed, due to no one's fault but myself, the pinnacle of Texas football and my college years. I tried to explain it to her...it'd be like if a girl planned and waited and waited and dreamed about her wedding day...and then when it came she got too drunk, passed out at the alter, and was kicked out by the police.

I guess that is one area you can thank California for being as liberal as they are, in most instances you would be going to jail for a PI. Glad you didnt and I can't even imagine what you are feeling.

No kidding, it could have been much much worse. I actually lost my real ID the first night I got there, so when the police pulled me out all I had was my fake saying I'm 22 (I'm 20). They thought it was real and although I don't remember what all they said, I think I got out of some minor in consumption trouble because of that. I think I have a guardian angel...

Sounds like it. Consider yourself lucky. Sounds like those cops were understanding knowing the situation going on and being leniant towards things. I have been to sporting events where that is not the case, glad to hear that you got out of the legal mess that could have come with it.

Why someone would go to a UT national championship game just to be in a drunken state of mind is beyond me.

I am pretty sure the memory would have been greater had you been sober anyways.

What a waste of money and ticket.

Man when yor're a fan and your at a event like that, its just hard to explain not drinking. This past sumemr when I went to the Red Sox/yankee series in July at Fenway. I landed in Boston around 11am, i went straight to my hotel convinced them to let me check in early and then was at the bar right around 1. I was blitzed by the time I got into Fenway and even more so when I left. Factor in losing on a Gay-rod bomb that is still in Orbit then you can imagine the state I was in.
What mtbray did is natural, go to any college football game and you will see how drunk the students are. At Georgia it is classic. They tailgate like no other place I have ever been. The leave their tailgate to go to the Dawg walk then go right back and keep drinking. The campus looks like a trailer park by the time the game is over and cops are all throughout Sanford stadium giving students breathalizers. It is just a ritual with college football. Students go to games drunk. I bet Mtbray wasnt the only one at the Rose Bowl who experienced this.

Isn't "The Swamp" in Florida supposed to have pretty crazy game-time parties?

pretty much anywhere in the SEC you go should be crazy with the exception of Vanderbilt and Kentucky. I have never been to games at The Swamp or Baton Rouge or Auburn, but I'm pretty sure they are all like Tuscaloosa, Athens and Knoxville, I have been to those 3 places and nothing in this state comes close to matching the pagentry that is those 3 places on a saturday afternoon.

I hear ya' and completely understand everything you said. However, in a game as huge and once in a life time as Texas-USC in the national championship.... the most highly anticipated game of my life... no way I go drunk. I soak it all in to the fullest.

God I wish I would have.....I just wish there was a button I could press to go back and make the right decision.
