One important part of Americana is College Football. Kevin and I had tickets to last Saturday's game against Boise State. Part of the experience is tailgating. In this context when someone invites to a "tailgate" what they mean is to meet in the parking lot, and bring food. Some people BBQ and eat before going into the stadium to watch the game. On Saturday we had perfect football weather, and fans, family and supporters turned out for the pre game tailgate.

A College football game is not complete without inflatables...

and a college marching band.

And finally, we were there until the bitter end to support our Rams. Go Rams. (Final score 13-63 - Poor Rams!) We were rewarded with this glorious sunset over Hughes Stadium.
