My friend Lori invited me to go with her and some other ladies to this fundraiser Tuesday night for the ASU football team. It was SO MUCH FUN. I laughed so much! I think next year Armor Seed is going to have to buy a table! One of the football players sat with us. Lori and her family are really big fans (and sponsors) of the ASU football program so she knows most of the coaches, players and just about anyone that has anything to do with the football program at all! The player that sat with us was actually a student teacher at Valley View this past year, so he knew Lori from being in Trey’s kindergarten class! He was a nice and sweet guy! He told us all about his girlfriend who he just bought a ring for! His name is Tyler Greve-#58 if you need someone to cheer for!
Several coaches came up and did different presentations about their area of expertise. . .really funny. They tried to teach us terms and plays that would impress our husbands and told us that our husbands really don’t know as much about football as they let us believe! I was really impressed with all the coaches and guys that MC’d the event. It was very engaging and humorous and to keep the attention of 300+ women while talking about football isn’t easy!!
There was some crowd participation and of course Lori got picked to help with one demonstration. And it was to “assist” the players in removing their uniforms! Lol!! She got one of the quarterbacks! Of course they only took off their gloves helmet, shoes, shirt and pads- but that was enough for it to be hysterical! Especially the shirt! Who knew those shirts were on so tight! Some of the other ladies were having a very, very difficult time getting them off and it was so funny! They had a live auction and had some good stuff but it all went quickly above my price range! There was a fashion show and they had lots of vendors there with everything you can think of that might have Red Wolves on it; clothes, jewelry, accessories, artwork. . .but we got there late and didn’t really get to shop. We will do better next year!
