Grizzlies Maul Mountianeers

What a great weekend! We arrived in Missoula about noon and the weather was great, crisp but no snow on the horizon. We made a quick stop at the bookstore to pick up anything Griz related that we hadn't bought on previous trips, and then on to our seats in the stadium. The game started at 2pm and we were ready! Monte, Mo and the team came out and the game began.

 

  
The  temperature began to drop...and at half time there were snowflakes in the air.
    
By third quarter the snow shovels were out! I understand that ESPN were impressed with the Griz nation, 30 below windchill and all 24,000 fans remained in the stadium cheering the Griz to victory.

  
The fans rocked the stadium! Cheers echoed through Missoula! Griz 24 - Mountaineers 17


Steve and Patrick had a great time!

 The next morning there was six inches of powder on the ground and we were thinking that it would be a difficult trip home, it was for the first seventy miles, it  took an extra hour, but after that we couldn't ask for better roads! We again stopped at Gamers for pasties, Patrick enjoyed the hot chocolate!

  1. Thought of you as we watched the game at home. Screamed our heads off at the Griz win! ESPN was indeed impressed. I looked for you in the stands but they kept showing students with no shirts. I know you so I knew not to try to find you in that crowd.
