History

Now that it's my last year of college, stuff is starting to sink in. Like the fact that I have to leave all of this in just a few months.
I hate thinking about it.

However, it's fun to reminisce all the great experiences I've had at Mizzou. This weekend will undoubtedly be one I remember FOREVER. Yes, forever.

I attended one of the most EPIC games in Mizzou football history. We took down the #1 ranked OU. It was the upset that the entire nation got to watch happen.
And I was there.
At Faurot Field.
In the jammed-packed student section.
Screaming my head off for 4 hours.

And then we rushed the field.

I've always wanted to do it, and I actually got to. I still feel like I'm on a high from over 24 hours ago. It was that great.

Unfortunately, I didn't bring my camera with me (which is probably a good thing. knowing me I'd have lost it). I did snap a few photos with my phone. They're not great, but they're something.

In the middle of Faurot, as the team made their way through the massive sea of gold fans off the field.

Kaitlin, myself, and Emily somehow managed to stick together to make it to the middle of the field. And we made it out without getting arrested. FTW


After everything, ESPN set up stage in the end zone to interview Blaine Gabbert and Gary Pinkel. It would've looked so dumb on TV without everyone in the background. That's why why HAD to rush the field. Way to go Tigers!

"Fight, Tigers, fight for Old Mizzou, Right behind you, everyone is with you, Break the line and follow down the field, And you'll be, on the top, upon the top; Fight, Tigers, you will always win, Proudly keep the colors flying skyward, In the end we'll win the victory, So Tigers, fight for Old Mizzou!"
