Eric found us amazing seats that came with a parking pass in one of the tailgate lots. Our set up was quite tame compared to everyone else. We had a blanket, tiny grill and some chips and cheddar turkey sausages. It was so neat seeing the pro tailgaters in action, flags flying, TVs set up, huge spreads of food. I'm pretty sure this is Eric's dream for our family.
It was a pretty hot Saturday so it was perfect that we had club seats so we could also go inside and sit in the a/c for a bit. Elle enjoyed a nap inside at one point and Eric enjoyed a beer. These seats are the only area in the stadium where alcohol is served so Eric was pretty pumped. I told Eric this is the only way I'm going to be able to come to Mizzou games now and he quickly let me know we will most likely never be in these seats again. He went all out for Elle's first game.
We received a lot of compliments on our adorable sleeping cheerleader :)
Elle was able to spot Truman on the field a few times but never got to meet him. After the game we were walking back to the car and she noticed all the tiger tails, we told her Truman was taking a nap in people's trunks so she loved going up to pet all the tiger tails. Eric learned that our car needs a tail of it's own and I learned that having Elle with us helps soften the blow of a Mizzou loss for Eric.
