Here's what happened. I was supposed to take my son to the Texas/Baylor game last weekend. Well...he came down with a horrible stomach bug...and didn't feel well enough to go. So I went with my father-in-law.

So to make it up to him...(I felt bad that he missed the game)
I decided to take him to the Baylor/OU game tonight. Don't ask me why...
I have no interest in that game whatsoever...But hey...it's a basketball game...and he wanted to go...So I took him. Plus...who knows...Baylor might pull of the upset. (Did not happen)

He enjoyed the pre-game introductions...and all that jazz. And made it all the way until the 4th quarter before he started nodding off and asking to go home.

So we are getting up to leave...and who does he spot?
The Baylor mascot is up in the crowd...waving at little kids.
And some of them are running up to him and hugging and dancing with him.
I said "Hey...you wanna go meet the bear?"
Big smile..."yes,sir" and started laughing.

Well he runs down the steps and hugs the mascot. I am right behind him with the camera...(gotta get pics for Mama)
So I get one of my son hugging the bear...and then the mascot notices that I am taking pictures.
So he kneels down...puts my son on his lap...and poses...
The Baylor mascot is doing that little gay sic 'em thing that they do...
and then it happened...

My FREAKIN' camera went dead...I am scrabbling in the case trying to find two more batteries...and the other two I had....are FREAKIN' dead too...

DAMN!!!

I missed it...

What was my son doing?

Well..............he was doing what any respectable 4-year old son of a t-shirt fan would do....

Representin' baby...
Right there.........sittin' on the Baylor mascot's lap...with both hands up...showing his Daddy "Hook 'em Horns"... I love that little dude.

And I didn't get the picture...
Damn!!!!!!!!

I know...I know...
I am still kicking myself for not buying new batteries before the game..
Hell I started to not bring a camera at all...My wife said take it just in case.
I figured I would just hold it all night...

My daughter wears a UT shirt and a Baylor cap all of the time. LOL She is confused. :) She will probably wear it to the game Saturday too. LOL

I thought you were going to say someone took a picture of you hugging the bear...

I would hug the bear...
And then I would go Chuck Norris on him and punt him across the arena.
