Minnesota Amazingness: The Fun times pt. 1

So this past weekend was the trip to Minnesota to visit Feeney. I was really excited about a vacation away from work (which is getting crazy). I was going to be taking a few friends of mine that were also friends with Feeney. Ended up that one of them decided to bring their girlfriend, who I had no clue was coming or know. Well things went well, the guys were crazy on the trip there. We had a lot of stops and were going to see my best friend Matty McFatty but we didn't have time. Feeney was throwing a party at his new frat house and we had to be there. It was sponsored by Rockstar energy drink and everything. We had to be there due to the fact that there was a list, yes a list. You had to be on the list in order to get in, I have never ever experienced that. We walked down frat row at the U of M and those buildings were crazy! We get there and the house was huge, and all the guys there were super nice. The party got bigger and bigger probably the biggest party I've been to in forever. There was drama, major drama with the guy and the girlfriend he brought. She ended up crying almost every five minutes, and I got to deal with it, GREAT. We had to stay because Feeney was getting auctioned off and we were going to get him lots of money. We ended up having a girl pay 65 dollars for him, a DKE record. go us. The night winded down around 2 and the guys and I started our walk back to Feeney's place.

Saturday was the day of the football game. Gophers vs. Badgers. Who to cheer for was the major question. So I decided to go with my Wisconsin t-shirt with a Minnesota hoodie. It covered both teams and i wouldn't be getting crap from my friends who I was going to meet up with that were tailgating. Well Feeney was still drunk from the night before and was very interesting. Krev, Pudge, Mike and his girlfriend decided to go right into the dome at watch the kick off. Well I promised my friend Derek from back home I'd meet up with him to say hi. So Feeney, Flunker, BaPauo, Dan and I decided to go on adventure. We walked all around the city trying to find 2nd and 5th where not only my friends were but the rest of the guys friends were as well. It was crazy, I'd never experienced tailgating like I had there. It was crazy. We eventually found the place but not our friends it was packed with so many people. We missed kickoff and decided to head to the metro dome to watch the game.

We got there and were right behind the U of M band, it was crazy awesome. We thought that we might be the only Wisconsin fans but we looked up at the upper deck and it was all Wisconsin fans, to be honest i think there were more Wisconsin fans there than Minnesota fans. the game was close and amazing. Near the end of the game i just happened to look and saw Derek and the guys a few rows down from us. I got to say hi and catch up and made plans to meet up later that night. It was so good to see him. Wisconsin pulled off the win after losing by 10 points the first half to a team that has only won ONE game. It was a great day to be a badger fan.

I have to go to work I will write more when I get home, it hasn't even gotten interesting yet.
