Believe Dat!

Of course I am going to blog about the Super Bowl. What a game! I do not think there could have been a more excited city than New Orleans. The game was amazing and in typical New Orleans fashion it was a comeback victory. When the game finally ended, you could pretty much hear the whole city just erupting. It was very cool to be in New Orleans at this special time. Honestly how could you root against the Saints? Classes were stopped at 1pm on Tuesday so that students could make it to the Saints' parade, which had about 800,000 people in attendance. Our girls’ track team had a meet in Pennsylvania the weekend of the Super Bowl and they were snowed in so they could not take any flights back. They actually stayed in Pennsylvania until Friday and went to Arkansas from there for the next meet. It is also Mardi Gras weekend, but the Super Bowl really started Mardi Gras early. School is going well and I am looking forward to competing in about a month. Classes are going well and I still feel that I learn more about the university each day. A lot of people are hurting these days, but I love how the Super Bowl victory boosted so many people's morale and not just in New Orleans. It has been an exciting week and I'm looking forward to the rest of the semester. Who dat!
