Falcons Game

There are a few advantages to having Home Depot as your third home - Free Falcons tickets.

This fall if you purchased over $300 on one receipt, you could send away for two tickets to see the Falcons.  We picked the last regular season game against the Carolina Panthers on January 2nd.

Spence ended up in Accra, Ghana, so I got to take William.  We had a GREAT time.

We started out with lunch at The Varsity.  William chose a Glorified Bacon Cheeseburger and an FO.  For those not fortunate enough to have eaten at The Varsity before,  that's a Bacon Cheeseburger with lettuce and tomato and a Frosted Orange - kindof like an Orange Julius.  I drove through the Arby's drive thru beforehand since I've vowed NEVER to eat at The Varsity again!  He LOVED it. :)  I even got him to practice saying, "What'll you have?"


 We hightailed it over to the stadium, but still missed the opening activities and kickoff.  We found our seats.  When Spence asked later how our seats were, William quickly replied with great excitement.  "They were four from the top!"  Really good seats to a six year old.

He held up this sign between almost every play.  He really wanted to make it on the big screen, but we were too high up for them to see him. 


William informed me that he "knows a lot about football."  And he did really good - even predicting what the flag on one of the plays was for! :)   I'm sure he'll be asking to go again next year.
