A drunk Ohio State fan, who fell asleep during the game! The people sitting behind him had some fun he had on a penn state necklace and a paw sticker and the Penn State pin on his hood.

Fall Snow Continued

As we drove into State College, the snow diminished some and was lightly raining.

The Iron Horse Sculpture at the Harley Davidson dealership.

Beaver Stadium as we turned onto Rt 26 to go to park at Walmart.
Once we parked, a short walk to the bus stop we boarded "The Football Express"



This was taken on the way up the ramp looking northeast




We waited some around the concession stands then we went to our seats, the snow was removed from the seats but not the floor area.



Whitney wasn't cold at all!



The student section and the southeast corner, the game started before the students showed up.


The second half kickoff.

We left the game a little early to beat the crowd back to the buses. The shuttle bus service worked very well.

Fall Snow Fall in PA

Our trip to Penn State was delayed till Saturday morning because of snow in the Seven Mountains area of Centre Co. We were worried about the campground being out of electric and road conditions at night. Saturday morning as we got close to Lewistown we started seeing the white stuff.








Laurel Creek just past the reservoir, you can see Rt 322 on the left hand side of the pic, in the next pic is the traffic backed up at that spot.



The traffic gets backed up because in about 2 or 3 miles the 2 lanes west turns into 1 lane. This is where the rain turned to snow.

The Mifflin Co. sign at the border with Centre Co.


The sign for the Seven Mountains Campground ahead to the left!






Here is the white and wonderful wildwood camper!




Dave getting the door unlocked


Inside I was getting lunch warmed up! I took a quick pic through the camper window of Whitney taking a pic of Dave measuring the snow, about 10 inches on the picnic table.
I'll have some more pics later....

Joe and The Boys


It's that time of year again!!! Penn State season opener with Akron.
Breanne took the photos before the game started using my camera.


No. 2 Chaz Powell (catching the ball) from Susquehannock High School, we watched him play in high school when Breanne worked for the marching band there.

Zip the Kangaroo mascot for Akron.

The drum major flip!

The game begins!

Then I captured the first touchdown of the new season!



"We Want The Lion" student sections yells!
Fun stuff is always happening during the breaks in the game!


The Cowbell Man!





Halftime
The halftime show was of course a tribute to MJ and the Lion doing Thriller.








Curt Warner inducted into the Hall of Fame



More Cowbell!
In my sisters section of the stadium! haha! NK




Second string QB passes!



We win 31-7
After the game we went downtown and when we came back past the stadium QB Darryl Clark was outside signing autographs, this girl was so excited!

The Game





Clark is wearing red so they remember not to tackle the QB.
We only stayed for the first half. We had to get back for a project for the dual sport in June.
