On February 2, 2012 the Assmus clan gathered at the Marriott Center in Provo, Utah! We journeyed to watch the Spokane Gonzaga Bulldogs play the Provo Cougars. What a facility this arena is! Crazy that we can purchase a ticket for our home team only out of town. The Marriott Center can entertain 22,700 fans, whereas the kennel (McCarthy Athletic Center) here in Spokane only holds about 6,000 fans. Buying a ticket here is nearly impossible!
Unfortunately, the Zags didn't perform very well in Provo, and the crowds booed us and razzed us for being "in their house". But our shirts were a hit! Everyone loved them and we became famous quickly throughout the stadium. People were asking to take our pictures. They were very amused. We are guessing we were on many Facebook pages that night. If you saw them, let us know! LOL!
We can only hope that in a couple weeks when we host that BYU Cougars here in Spokane that we can give them a payback and score better than we did that night!
We will always be Zag fans. Sorry, BYU, we cannot cheer for you! But we do love your stadium! And, what a great way to have a reunion! Love my kids.....love my Zags!
