Football Vacation Eve Eve


Saturday was a ZOO in Boone! Traffic was horrific and the campus bookstore was over run with students trying to get their books. (I wonder...does ASU still have a book rental system? Surely there is a better way for distribution! Why make them stand in horrendous lines? That's such a waste of precious time! Why don't they deliver the textbooks to each professor and he/she can pass the books out on the first day of class?)


Anywho, I really couldn't handle the crowd so I marched to town for my would be game-wear purchases. In addition to my gold visor (from Appalachian T's) I picked up a preppy Big A belt and, following App Fan's advise, got this t (at Mast Store).


My cashier at The Mast Store was a delightful young man who is leaving Boone on Friday (after class) and driving (in a car that doesn't have cruise control) to Baton Rouge for the game. OK... I'm glad I'm in my 40's and can travel in comfort.


My lame picture of the west side stands. For good and thorough pics check here.
Here's a question...why don't we pressure wash the cement at the base of the stands? Seems to me that white would be better than ecru.

bad picture, great message

Either I'm totally unobservant or this sign just went up yesterday. This is visible to west bound travellers on I-40 at the highway68 exit. It actually sits on Albert Pick Road (where my office is located). While I LOVE it, I still can't get past or embrace the current Yosef logo.

I was googling around today and found an old article on the bleacher report where Jimson Cuenta picks our Mountaineers to beat the Tigers.

Last season, the Appalachian State Mountaineers SHOCKED THE WORLD, by UPSETTING the Michigan Wolverines, 34-32 in Ann Arbor, during Week 1 of the College Football season.
This season, the Appalachian State Mountaineers will SHOCK THE WORLD, AGAIN... This time, by UPSETTING the LSU Tigers, AT Tiger Stadium.

Down on the bayou

Hooray! Our schedule is filled for the 08 season! The LSU fans are less than amused.
