It's that time of year again, Michigan fans go wild...meaning Trent and his brother and buddy, Jason. They decided to take the offer of free tickets, to an at home game in Ann Arbor, Michigan through his cousin Dennis. How did they get there you ask? Well, they wanted to be conservative (since plane tickets are over $500) and drive...yes, drive from Salt Lake City, Utah all the way to Ann Arbor, Michigan. How long was their window of driving? Well, let's just say there wasn't much sleeping and a lot of driving. They all had jobs and couldn't take much time off, so yes, they left Thursday evening, and drove all through the night and all through Friday arriving that night. Lot's of caffeine was consumed...
Saturday afternoon was the game so they toured campus and frat houses and enjoyed every minute of it.
Game started and they loved the atmosphere... but their team wasn't doing too well, and the long drive back haunted them. 4th quarter was a rain delay, but with them loosing, they decided to hit the road anyway.
They took off, drove most of the night and hit a hotel the last few hours of the night, got up and drove all through Sunday. About midnight or 1am Trent came strolling in. Not sure they will do that again, but road tripping usual builds unique memories that cannot be obtained any other way.
