For Christmas last year I gave Brad tickets to the Texas Tech vs. UT Basketball game. Brad played basketball for most of his younger years and still plays on a league one night a week. So, I thought this would be a fun night out! The game was finally here last Saturday so we got dressed in our appropriate school gear and headed down to the Frank Erwin Center for the game.
We had good seats and enjoyed the game. Of course, it may have been a TAD more enjoyable for me since we had home court advantage, the UT band was there and all the fanfare was burnt orange and white!

Brad was a good sport about being in a sea of burnt orange. There were a few Red Raiders around and when they would see one another, they will flash the Tech hand signal and smile at each other.
UT is currently ranked #3 and Tech is, well... not. So, Brad didn't go into the game with high hopes. I, however, was hoping for an upset because it was his Christmas present!!! Unfortunately, Tech didn't get the memo about winning for Brad...

It was a fun night regardless and since it was a present, I didn't gloat... too much.
