Last Saturday was a big deal in my college life: I went to my first college football game! This was a big deal because I've never been to a college football game before. It was an amazing experience! My family didn't go to big colleges with football teams, and we are baseball people. I was excited to tailgate, watch the game, sit in the student section, and everything football!!
I was super ready for the game. I had the cute outfit, makeup was on POINT, I knew who I was sitting with at the game, and I had a bunch of orange around me! I met up with one of my friends in from of the library and we went to go watch The Walk. This was amazing! Seeing the players, coaches, and family walking down Hester to the stadium was a great experience. The players were smiling, giving kids high fives, and they all just looked like they were taking in every moment. The best part, of course, was seeing Coach Gundy. Everyone around me was hollering and shouting, "Hey Coach! Go Coach! Do work today, Coach!" I laughed because he was just smiling from ear to ear. I instantly became more excited.
Once my friend and I got to the line where all the students were and got in, we were sitting in the first section pretty close. It was super hot, and I was sweating everywhere. Like EVERYWHERE! But I didn't mind because it was my first game, and I was too excited! Then it was time for the team to come out of the tunnel, and everyone in the student section was cheering and filming on with their phones. Once the team ran out, I was screaming, my friends were screaming, everyone was screaming!
The entire game was cheers, jumping, and chants. By the third quarter, we were up a lot, like a lot of points (it was too hot and I couldn't remember how many points were up). I was getting ready to leave because I was going home to surprise my dad for Labor Day and I was sweating too much. Even though I left early, I still had the greatest time. My first OSU game was definitely one I won't forget! GO POKES!
