We had an absolute 100% blast! Unfortuantely we arrived too late to do the Herd run across the field, but now I know what to do for the fall games.
We arrived in time to meet up with some friends of mine from back in the day who were also attending. But I was just blown away by how much there is to do. It's impossible to check it all out. I wanted to see Pat Green, but Jr. wanted to hit the Midway, and so we did. He loved it. Then we checked out the Hall of Fame and had a wander to see what we could see, and it was time for the game. What an exiting game to see too! But man, all the flashing lights, the flaming batons, drones, holy gucacamole. It's sensory overload, but in the best possible way. I'm already making my "next time we should..." list.
We got up and walked around campus a bit yesterday, hit the Coop to get some gear and then checked out the Texas Military Forces Museum out at Camp Mabry before heading back. That's a great little museum if you're into military history.
Traffic was a bear on the way back to Dallas. We left at 1:30 and didn't get back until about 5:30. So about an hour longer than usual for me.
tl;dr - 100% max fun achieved.
