Monkeys first WSU Cougars game



Getting ready to get on the bus.   Levi wanted to bring his WSU monkey along for the ride.


Aunt Erin sent us with strict instructions that there was to be an ESPN Game Day bus picture to be taken.  By the time we rolled into Pullman they were already done loading up the set so the bus picture took priority.


Second priority was a stop at Ferdinand's Ice Cream Shoppe at the WSU Creamery.  As we were standing in line Levi said "like Ferdinand the Bull" and was then very excited to see the story panels inside.  "It is like Ferdinand!"


The Cougar Pride bronze was in high demand and by the time we got close enough to make it clear that we were in line for a photo, we had so many people packed in behind me that I couldn't get the photo framed properly.  


A shout out to our Aunt Erin for giving us her tickets.  
She had a prior commitment so we reaped the bounty.  Levi is standing in front of the picture wall where they post the President's Award Recipients.  Maybe someday he'll be on the wall instead of in front of it.

Obligatory selfie.


Proof that we all can just get along.

My sources say 30,000 fans were on the field after the game.  Levi really wanted to go down but I wasn't sure how to get us there and back out again in time to catch the bus home.
