I'm going to Kansas City tomorrow.

[OmahaBlueDog]

Where I will watch my beloved Golden Bears, led by new Coach Mike Montgomery, take on the Maryland Terrapins. More to the point, this is the battle of my family (mostly Cal Grads) vs. Mrs. OBDs family (many Terps in her family).

Go Bears!

1. lucky you - there don't seem to be any tix to see Pitt at Dayton (silly me)

KC has the strangest-shaped airport! I like Cal.

2. I got my tix on e-bay

I got them from a ticket broker for below face value. The tix are terrible, but I just want to yell and have fun!

3. Ev'rythin's up to date in Kansas City

Ev'rythin's up to date in Kansas City
They've gone about as fur as they c'n go!
They went and built a skyscraper seven stories high,
About as high as a buildin' orta grow.
Ev'rythin's like a dream in Kansas City,
It's better than a magic lantern show!
Y' c'n turn the radiator on whenever you want some heat.
With ev'ry kind o' comfort ev'ry house is all complete.
You c'n walk to privies in the rain and never wet your feet!
They've gone about as fur as they c'n go,
(Yes sir!)
They've gone about as fur as they c'n go!

7. Here's to you, OmahaBlueDog!

Kansas City, Kansas City here I come
Kansas City, Kansas City here I come
Got some pretty little women there, I'm gonna get me one

Standing on the corner, Twelfth Street and Vine
Standing on the corner, Twelfth Street and Vine
With my Kansas City baby now, buying Kansas City wine

Well the water in the city, well, taste like Georgia Pie
Going to Kansas City where it tastes like sugar wine
Going to Kansas City, Kansas City here I come
Got some pretty little women there, gonna get me one

Kansas City, yeah every night you gave me none
Kansas City, surely looked like they were done
You know they turned it around now baby, gonna scratch it, gonna run

And rock with my baby, rock with my baby, one more time
Rock with my baby, Kansas City baby one more time
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine

Well I might take a plane, might take a train
If I have to walk I will get there just the same
Oh, Kansas City, Kansas City here I come
Crazy little women there, I'm gonna get me one

:toast:
Have a safe trip and enjoy the game! :hi:

8. Thank you. Enjoyment will be had

After the game, barbeque and Sheridans custard may well be eaten (although, according to another thread, I should be jailed for taking my kid out for this fare)

[tigereye]

9. sometimes kids just gotta eat a bunch of junk-food!

it's tradition! :toast: Hope you have a great time! What is Sheridan's custard, btw - is that an ice cream place?

[OmahaBlueDog]

10. Custard is like a super premium soft serve, but with less air whipped into it

11. sure, I know about custard, but I thought maybe that place had a special

recipe...


thanks!
