The Army Navy Game

Early in the semester, somehow in the course of wing conversation the Army Navy Game came up. My roommate, Cameron, mentioned that one of the defensive coaches for Army was a long time friend of his dad. The point being: You could possibly get tickets!!!

Well, we got buried in the semester and assumed tickets would not happen. A week or so before the game, Cameron found out he had 3 tickets! Of course, the game was the Saturday during Finals, but how could we pass up such an amazing opportunity to go to the Army Navy Game? Later, he got two more tickets, so Cameron, Tyler, Ethan, Seth, and I all went. We had a blast!

The Cadets marching on.

Since the tickets were extra tickets for coach wives, we were in row five. We were really close to the field!


The Midshipmen attempting to march on as well as the cadets ;)

The Army Team running onto the field!






The President crossing to the Army side of the field.

President Obama attended the game! He was on the Navy side of the field for the first half, but he crossed the field during half time. Since we had such great seats, he was literally 20 feet in front of us shaking hands.
