My roommate from college, Leesa, had asked us at the beginning of basketball season if we wanted to meet sometime in Columbia to go to a basketball game. Of course we did! Ella had never been to Mizzou Arena and Sam has become a huge Tiger basketball fan. Plus Leesa and Brian have kids right around the age of Ella and Sam so we knew they would enjoy themselves. Now when we chose the weekend of the Baylor game we had no idea what a huge game it would turn out to be. The number four ranked team in the nation (US!) versus the sixth ranked team (them).
The game did not disappoint. It was a close first half which kept us on the edge of our seats and we got to see the Tigers play amazingly well in the second half and lead us to a victory. The kids had a great time cheering, dancing and watching everything that was happening.
After the game we took a quick trip to the columns for some photos and then went across the street for some Shakespeare's pizza. We enjoyed catching up with Leesa and Brian and the kids had fun together. Of course the pizza was delicious as always. We may have to start making this a yearly event.
