1st Trojan Home Game

Sept 11, 2010



The USC Trojans first home game of the 2010 season was scheduled for 7:30 pm.  We decided to meet my sister, C and her husband, R, at USC and drive home after the game instead of staying at the B&B.  We got there around 4 pm.  We had reservations at the Galen Center for their tailgate party.  They had fruit, salad, chicken, ham, hot dogs & dessert.  We watched the other games on TV and ate.  We spent so much time there we didn't even go on campus.  Walked down to the Coliseum and went to our seats. 

"FIGHT ON"

Fight On for ol' SC
Our men Fight On to victory.
Our Alma Mater dear,
looks up to you
Fight On and win
For ol' SC
Fight On to victory
Fight On!


USC football is a tradtion unlike any other.  The song "Conquest" always brings chills to me.  Traveller, the horse, is unlike any other college mascot.  Our championships and bowl record is unmatched by any other school.  As you can tell I am proud to be a Trojan and feel very blessed to have graduated from there.

The game was very boring.   Neither team did well.  We were fortunate to come out with a win.  Not sure why, but the team was uninspired.  Hopefully the team will play better.  Maybe it is the NCAA sanctions, but it was only one person from SD that has caused all these problems.  We ran across him when he was in high school at track meets and he was fast, but to do what he did...

We got home at 2:00 am.  It was along day but we came away with a victory.
