It's not that you're old, it's that you're a mother with a son. :D Our son is at Auburn and is not looking forward to this weekend's game against LSU--he may come home.

It has more to do with my growing up during an era of morality. It suited me then, and it suits me now. I did a few nightclubs as a young adult, but I can honestly say that I never really enjoyed it. As for vulgar language and gestures...I just don't see the point. These are the people who will grow up to be the parent who wears jewelry that can double as a lethal weapon and who ignores a precious child at a football game...and probably the rest of the time, too.<br /><br />See what you've done...you've made me rant. :)Linda at To Behold The Beautyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07419060763634934217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064619473180096184.post-19296475879812015322012-09-18T22:00:48.915-05:002012-09-18T22:00:48.915-05:00Wonderful shots.

I could care less about football but enjoyed watching the clothes, crazyness and especially keeping up with UGA. It certainly is a show!! Love the little boy w/ with the horn. Once a year would be fine - but every home game was a bit much!! Guess you had your belly fill - We never got into the bars - there was plenty of stuff going on outside!!

Got married and had kids right away after college! Now that I am retired I have recently entered the bar scene but it is usually very controlled. "Older folk having cocktails."<br />So I guess I missed that whole fun part of my life. I have been to several of Jimmy Buffet before concert parties! OMG what fun. Naughty me!!!<br />Great captures Gail! I'm so glad you were able to let loose!

As far as the uncomfortable situation, I had a little one this past weekend at the wedding I attended. There was a very nice looking young man that began flirting with me...he even took my picture with him kissing me on the cheek. I was flattered, but a little uncomfortable. He was probably not much older or about the age of my oldest grandson who is 25.

I haven't been to a college game in a long, long time (the last one some kid puked whiskey all over during the invocation - yes, we were lucky enough to not be sitting in front of him). Things get raunchier and raunchier every day. I try not to think about it, and stay away.
