I’m going to be on that TV with my wedding dress on. I sure hope white is slimming!

I really hate to bore you with another football post, but this is very important. This is different from my usual “Hi! I’m tailgating and probably drunk!” posts. Rest assured that I am sober and am also having the best day ever.

My friend Sarah (San Diego friend that I got a tattoo with, intern roommates and crazy spring break Mexico friend) got Rocket Man and I the best wedding present imaginable.

Wait for it.

We are going to be featured as a “Sun Devil Story.” I’ll explain.

In each Arizona State home game, they have a two minute “movie” that showcases the story of a big fan. WE are going to be those fans. She applied for us, sent them our information and we were picked.

Rocket Man is a HUGE ASU fan. He went there, he made great friends there and has been following the football team for as long as he can remember.

So anyway, we’re going to be their story for the sold out, 73,000 capacity, November 15th homecoming game! They’re sending a film crew to our house, to our tailgates and get this, even to our wedding and reception! They’re even going to give us all of the raw footage of the wedding … for free!

They picked us because we scheduled our wedding around the football season. That’s why our wedding is on a Friday and also why we’re not leaving for our honeymoon until Sunday. Silly, sure, but Rocket Man loves it and I love that about him. The theme of the video is going to be that cute couch scene with the old folks from ‘When Harry Met Sally.’ Anyone?

Of course, if I had REALLY thought about it, I wouldn’t have scheduled a wedding during football season at all. I’m sure there will be an anniversary sometime soon that will include sitting in a dirt parking lot with a beer in my hand from the keg of a VW bus.

Boy, the things you do for love!
