This evening our friends Bill and Maria invited us and a few others over to their house to watch the National Championship game between Georgia and Alabama. Maria is an Auburn graduate so there was no doubt we would be rooting for Georgia. That my sound easy, but my three sons and two daughters in law all have at least one degree from Georgia Tech, our arch rival is therefore Georgia. Given that Maria was hosting the party it would be gauche for me to root for Alabama. I decided that my best course of action was to root for Georgia Tech. Yeah, I know they weren't playing. Ginny and I both wore some Georgia Tech shirts. Unfortunately Alabama pulled it off with a stunning touchdown in overtime. It was a great game.
The photo is of Bill and Maria's dog Abby. The dog had no interest in the game, as can plainly be seen. Ginny also managed to snooze through the 4th quarter. No joy in Mudville, but the food was great.
