Go Dawgs....

On Saturday, the Adams family had a big day on UGA's campus. In the morning, we went to to Athenaze, an annual event hosted by the Classics department. There is a booksale and lecture. Eric also took part in a panel discussion regarding Latin teachers. Then after a break for lunch downtown, we attended the UGA Spring scrimmage game which is open and free to the public and concludes spring practice for the football team.
Here is Emily with Hairy Dog, the cartoonish imposter mascot for the Bulldogs.

Here Emily and Eric stand on Sanford Bridge overlooking the stadium as we leave at halftime. The reported attendance for the game was 38,000, but from the look of the stands, I think most are still standing in the concession line. The stadium itself holds 92,000.


We were able to get some primo seats, under the covering of the upper deck and seats with backs on them. We were in the endzone for the game, but the seat position with shade and comfort more than made up for the locale.

Emily apparently took exception to some idle talk of the FL Gators. She already seems to be rabid for the Fall season to begin. Game face on!
