Today was the adventure also known as the $C Game!
First of all lemme let all ya'll know that I was scheduled to work but I just didn't go. I told the manager last nite that I wasn't gonna be able to come in and then this morning I got a call this morning from the Chief of Staff and he's like you know you are supposed to work and I am like I am sorry I really can't. OH WELL! haha he's like ok ttyl!
SO yes we get there very well....and then I am driving around to find parking and it's OUT OF CONTROL! People everywhere and I have no idea where to park. We see a place to park for like 25 bucks and I am like lets look for 20 bucks and then we will park there. Little did we know that was the CHEAPEST that we would see all day. We were driving around and then saw 80!!!!!!!! and 70!!!!!!!!!!! dollars. We are like WTF! HELL NO! So we keep driving around in these random circles and then we are super duper far from the Coliseum and we find this spot on a side street FOR FREE!!!!!!!!!!!! We weren't sure if we were gonna get a ticket BUT WE DIDN"T! So that was pretty tight. I did almost get hit by a car cuz I wasn't sure if it was a 4 way stop or not and yea it wasn't. But whatever that car totally saw me and still went anyways....psh whatever.
The game was interesting. We had a lot of school spirit but our team sadly didn't perform well and that seemed to die out quickly except when we had a few good plays that really got the crowd going. But what I don't understand is that random SC fools that were sitting in our area. It was just annoying to have them there yelling their anti-UCLA shit when I am like do you SEE how many ppl there are around you that what to kill you right now?! Yea there were numerous drunk girls, this annoying guy w/ a whistle, and ppl sitting in out seats grrrr. But it was still fun and I am glad that I got to go and miss work! haha! I did pick out a certain individual out of the crowd =)
We left at the end of the 3rd quarter cuz we were trying to miss some traffic and we were so far behind there was no point. As we were afraid for our lives walking back to out car (I had to throw away my pepper spray when I go to the stadium so I will now have to walk around Westwood at 1 am unarmed) SO then there was a hot dog man selling HOT DOGS fancy that and there were police men there saying "oh is this the guy from before" and the other was like "yea" and then Becky said " oh yea he got those hot dogs OUT OF THE TRASH!?!?!" That insane cuz they smelled so good =( We made it back to the car and then the road rage began and I realized how much I hate driving in LA esp when I am not familiar with the area. So yea I had to get off the freeway once cuz I took the wrong direction and I missed the turn once actually twice. It sucked but I got back to Westwood and oddly felt like I was at home and that I was safer.
Just thought I would share my SC experience. And this little quote from the Den paper they pass out at the game:
"For UCLA, we want to win but we don't sacrifice our values of college athletics and our love of the game for just one more victory over USC. When UCLA wins we win with class and we ring the victory bell for the love of the game and our school. For a USC fan it is all about their personal prestige and ability to play one-upsmanship. For UCLA fans, our lives are not validated because we beat USC."
