Tech beats Clemson......again

I went to the Tech vs Clemson basketball game last night with Tom. It was a great game, but we didn't know that until the very end. I think I want Tech to win so much that it can, at times, screw up my ability to have a great time. However, last night was not the case. I had the mindset that we could definitely lose this game because Clemson is not bad. But, I love beating clemson more than any other team out there (except for uga, of course).

So the game was close the whole time, but for the most part Tech lead. With a couple minutes left in the game Clemson took a small lead that never exceeded one score. At this point the row of Clemson losers behind us were talking smack to a quiet tech fan sitting next to us. I wanted to pop off in typical "Robert's at a sports game talking smack to opposing fans" fashion. For those of you who dont know, as a student sitting in the student section you can say anything you want without the fear of getting your ass whooped. And when I was a student, I took full advantage of those freedoms. USA! Those were the times.

Anyway, back to the story. I wanted to make fun of the 17 year old Clemson crap bags but there was a kid sitting next to the them as well as their mother. So being a classy individual, I held my tongue. I guess I just made a short story long....Sorry.

Tech went on to win, thus making the game great!! It was fun to go to a basketball game seeing as I hadn't been in over a year.

Another not so cool story. While waiting in line to drain the main vain at half time Tom and I saw Len Elmore. He is one of the guys on the broadcast team for ESPN and former Maryland player. As he walked through the line I put up my hand for a high five and said, "Len, give it up!". At first he kept walking like he didn't see me (but I knew he did.... I'm beautiful!). So I said it again, and at the last minute he slapped me some skin. It was close, I almost got left hanging in front of all my friends. That would have been embarrassing. Come to think of it, I doubt he would have given me such a bodacious high five if I were coming out of the bathroom (for obvious reasons......potentially having pee on my hand).
