Row 65 upper level, definitely nosebleeds but still a pretty good view. My best friend from college lives in Dallas so me and his nephew, who is a recent UT Aerospace Eng grad living in Huntsville, drove over on Wednesday. We hit the Dallas Book Store Depository Museum on Thursday and the Ft. Worth Stockyards on Friday, drove up to the game on Saturday in two cars. Me and my buddy's nephew drove over to Ft Smith Ark after the game, about a 3 hour drive, then came home yesterday. My buddy and his brother who flew in from Oregon drove back to Dallas after the game. The nephew of my friend is from Chatt, so he was with me and two of his uncles. We had a great time! The only annoyance, other than the seemingly endless commercials and promotions OU apparently likes to do (at a very high volume!), was that my best bud had a few two many and kept elbowing me on practically every play, lol. Overall a great experience, particularly with the W! Looking forward to watching the replay. Have not yet had time to do that.

We were afraid that would slow us down. We also passed the band and a couple of other busses (cheerleaders, charter, ?) around 1 am, and they were being escorted by Blount County (the county Murville is in) sherriff's deputies. We sped back up after realizing they were from Tennessee :dielaughing: |
