This weekend the beau and I and a few friends headed up to OAKLAND to see the Raiders play some football…and they kicked booty! Unfortunately, our quarterback got hurt and may be out for the season š but we aren’t losing hope! The game was the first home game since Al Davis’ passing, and they had a special ceremony so we were glad to be there to celebrate his life!
I tried to play “sports photographer” throughout the day so here’s what I came up with… (the last few are from the BF…he’s just a tad better than me haha.)
We played a little catch…
Raider Fans…we are one of a kind.
Our new friend! š
Mr. W’s homemade salsa!
The sun was in our eyes a little…but our seats were AHMAZING.
One of the few Cleveland fans…he was escorted out shortly after for his bad conduct :P.
Al himself!
Once a cheerleader, always a cheerleader! Love those Raiderettes!
#12 in front… Jacoby Ford!
Nicole was a Patriot fan before…but left a Raider fan š
Coach Hue Jackson
BOOM Big D showin them whats up!
“Just Win Baby” – Al Davis. Words to live by.
All in all it was a great trip! If I had to give a “Champagne Lifestyle on a Beer Budget” tip, it would be to get there early so you can tailgate before the game! My boyfriend’s awesome dad Mr. W cooked us up some delicious chicken teriyaki, riblets, guacamole, and salsa! We went into the game well-fed and didn’t feel the need to splurge on an over-priced hot dog!
That’s the way to do it š
