Bitter-Sweet-Sixteen

Chance of a lifetime, Kyle and I went to see the Orange "Cuse" play in the March Madness sweet sixteen game last Thursday. What are the chances that a northern NY team, Kyle's team, would be playing here in Utah. There was no question that we had to be there. Just getting the tickets was exciting as we watched and waited for good deals then tried to get them before they sold out. We were minutes too late a few times, but we found that by waiting till Thursday we were able to get some great seats for a great deal and we were not disappointed... till later that night when Syracuse was defeated by Butler. It was quite a heartbreak, but Kyle handled it with class and silence. It did put a little damper on our night, but we still had an amazing time, it's just a win would have have made it perfect.

We were pumped and ready for the game to start. Thanks to my sister who watched Dayton and Camrie so we were able to get there early to get our seats and hang out all night.

Don't we look important with out VIP tickets.

Here was our view all night. We saw 2 great games, but the second had a better outcome. We got to see the double overtime Kansas St. win over Xavier. What a game that was, it did help our spirits some as it was a such great game.

A little closer shot of the court. I tried to get pictures of some of the players, but they would not cooperate, were too busy warming up.
