Bengal Basketball

We finally did it. Last month we finally made it to an ISU game of any kind.
We tried going to a basketball game earlier in the season with some friends but were disappointed to find out (after we got there) that Dillon and his friend Terry did not have the new student ID cards and therefore they would each have to buy a ticket for themselves at full price then pay full price for us wives to get in (instead of at 1/2 price). So, since we weren't about to pay over $30 each couple to watch the ball game, we left. And since we don't live in Pocatello Terry and Sarah were kind enough to let us come crash their house. So after getting some yummy ice cream it was off to their house for a movie. It wasn't how we planned the night but still fun nonetheless.
Thanks Terry, Sarah & Bryker :)

Well a couple months later, and after Dillon got the new ID card, we tried one more time to go watch the Bengals at their last home game of the season. Terry and Sarah weren't able to go with us this time but thankfully Dillon and I were able to get in at the free and discounted student/spouse rate. We weren't expecting much since it is ISU sports but, much to our surprise it was a lot more fun than we thought it'd be. But that doesn't mean it still didn't completely remind me of a HS game, especially since they weren't even planning in the Mini Dome due to High School State Wrestling Tournament. Ha Ha.
After an intense game against Sacramento State the Bengals were beat by 3 points. But of course we had to document the occasion with a few pictures since it was our first and possibly last ISU Bengal Basketball game :)
Coming down from a dunk, that he missed :)
At least his went in
I tried the whole second half to get a good picture of this guys hair......but this is the best I could get. If you can't tell, he takes his Bengal basketball season very seriously by cutting his hair to look like tiger strips.
