BOO!

I'm not sure if I have mentioned this in previous posts, but I also play football for the Hillsdale College. In my football career I have been apart of some pretty amazing games... But none like the one that we just played. We were playing Grand Valley State University. At the time they were ranked #1 in DII and we were not even in the top 25. It was our homecoming game so the pressure was definitely on us to win. At half time we were winning by 2 points. In the 4th quarter they end up taking a lead of 24 - 20 with about 5 min. left in the game. We drive down and score with 36 sec. left on the clock. People are freaking out at this point. Grand Valley gets the ball back and ends up driving down to our 39 yard line and attempt a 49 yard field goal with 3 sec. left. The clock expires as the field goal sails wide right and everyone goes crazy... We run on the field to celebrate with our teammates and our stands begin to clear out. So many people were in the middle of the field just jumping and cheering. It was amazing. Below is a short video of the student section beginning to clear out.



Just a side note -- Yesterday I went out and bought the movie Jeepers Creepers but have not mustered up the courage to watch it yet. I remember watching it at a friends house when it first came out and I remember freaking out. So instead of watching that I decided to watch the OLD House on Haunted Hill. It's still good just in case you were wondering. I remember watching that as a kid on Halloween as I was counting/sorting out all of my candy. lol. I wonder if there is such a thing where you can spend the night in a hunted house like in the
movie... not like a bed and breakfast (although they can be freaky) but and actual house with some friends. I would do it... I think...I'm definitely in the Halloween spirit right now. I think tonight I am going to see Halloween II (the Rob Zombie one) with a couple of friends. I've heard it's pretty messed up soooo I might just be the guy who offers to refill everybody's popcorn and drinks the whole time.

Watching/Listening 2: THE SKELETON DANCE (1929) - See Below

It might be to scary for you.
