WE ARE…PENN STATE!

A couple of weeks ago John Dowd came up with this great idea to go to the Penn State game. So he rounded up a few of us to get together a little tailgate party and head south. The day started at 6:30am when we were all to meet here at the corporate office. Ron was driving all of us in his RV and that’s what time he wanted to head out. We were all here at 6:30am and there was no sign of Ron. He finally showed up at about 7:15 and we hit the road. That’s where the fun began. We had such a blast on the way up there. We even have a videotape of Jeff singing some Mr. Big for us. It was great. Once we arrived at Penn State we started up the grill and really starting have some fun. We played a few tailgating games before we headed into the big stadium. It was the first game of the season so everyone there was so fired up and ready for the New Year. WE ARE… PENN STATE is what you heard across the whole stadium. Everyone was on their feet chanting with pom poms in their hands. We decide while rooting for our favorite team we would do it Sundance style. We all showed up with our shirts on to represent Sundance Vacations. John decided to make a bet with Kristin, Lindsey and I. The original bet was that he was going to take the underdog. Right before we shook on it he decided that he couldn’t go against his team so he decided to take his team by 35 ½ points. The bet was he would have to take us three out to lunch if we won and we would have to take him and Tina if he won. We had this one in the bag. We were so excited and starting planning on where we were going to have lunch. Well it didn’t turn out in our favor. Penn State stomped the opposing team, which meant we lost pretty bad.  John came in the day we had to take him and Tina out to lunch saying he hasn’t eaten in 2 days and he was starving. He picked Red Lobster because he wanted to pick out his own lobster. He wanted steak and 4 appetizers and of course he wanted some dessert. He was milking this the best he could. We all had such a great time and learned a valuable lesson. Never bet against John Dowd!!!!
