Illinois vs. EIU

Today we went to the Illinois football game at the new Memorial Stadium. We share three season tickets with some friends and Mark and I had requested the tickets for todays game. We both attended EIU before moving on to Illinois State so it was fun to go back and watch Illinois play Eastern. I'm so glad that Mark chose to wear orange!!! A few years back, Illinois played Illinois State (where we both graduated). Mark insisted that we wear red and I promise that we were the only ones wearing red in our section. It didn't help that Mark was cheering excessively loud for ISU! I was mortified! ISU definitley lost big time to Illinois as Eastern lost today but it was still fun to watch the schools that we used to go to play against our now favorite team, Illinois!
