3:30 AM Football Tickets

How I scored UT vs. Missouri at 3:30 in the morning Friday before the game:

Friday night Renee, Lissette and I went downtown to meet some friends from Houston staying at the Hilton. It was already midnight by the time we got there so we had minimal partying time. At two after trying to get everyone back together we headed back to the Hilton. There we hung out for almost an hour trying to figure out rides, where people are staying and then someone brought up blueberry pancakes. That opened up a whole other can of worms. Meanwhile, Lissette is chatting with this guy on the bench who is just listening and laughing at our loud, drunk selves. The game gets mentioned and poof....he gives us 2 tickets to the game, a parking permit for campus garages or lots, and 2 wrist bands to get into the Goal Post Club.

Moral of the story:
It pays to hang out in front of the Hilton at 3 am even when you aren't a paying customer!
