I sure am glad we got here early. In a short time this whole lot
will be full. Lets unload everything!
The hamburgers are ready!
Hey Court,
you and Lauren
take Jackie and I in a game of bags. What do
you say?
Sounds great! Yay! We
won!
Yahoo!! Go Illini!
Wisconsin is going down!
Hey Whit! You’re just in time!
Ok, it’s 10:30! The game starts in a half hour.
Lets clean up and start heading over
to Memorial Stadium!
These seats are
great!
Yeah I know. I’m so
glad we have the awning
because it is so hot!
Look at all of the
orange clothing in
the bleachers!
Man, this is going to be a long game. I never know
what is going on and don’t
really like football…
I’ll just ask my dad what’s happening while we
watch it today.
Hey look! The game is starting!
Why did the ref throw the yellow flag?
The referees throw yellow flags on the field right after a penalty has been
committed.
Why do teams punt the football?
A punt is for field position
purposes.
Why would Illini not kick the ball after they just
scored a touchdown?
Instead of scoring an additional 1-
point for kicking an extra point, the Illini could run or pass
the ball for 2 points after a touchdown.
What is so special about
tackling Wisconsin on fourth down?
It is important to do it before the orange markers
because that means we get the ball instead
of them.

Wow, now that I know how football is played,
I understand why people love it so much! I shouldn’t have been so prejudice towards it just because I didn’t
know the rules.
I was able to yell and boo and
cheer at the right times along with the other Illinois fans, that was
great!
I don’t think any
of us stopped
smiling the entire game!
That was a lot of fun Court. I’m glad you
learned more about football
today!
I can’t wait for the football
game on Dad’s Weekend next
year!
