U-C-O-N-N, UConn, UConn, UConn!!!

It's November so that means two things~ ThanksgivingFest and UConn!!! 

UConn had their season opener at home for the first time in a long time and we weren't going to miss that.  I was feeling better and I was so ready to cheer on my Huskies.  I'm super nervous about this season because as a Husky fan I have super high standards.  Our team is a little young this year and the competition is pretty strong.  I was really excited to see the team for myself and get a better grasp on how this season will play out.

It was chilly, but of course we stopped by the Jonathan statue before the game.



The first half was great, the second half a bit bumpy.  I will say, this team has a lot of room to improve and that should frighten the rest of the field! 

After the game, we headed over to Geno's Grille for lunch.  While we were eating, a older man came over to our table and offered us free second row, behind the bench tickets for the men's game later that night.  You can't say no to that so we headed right back to Gampel!


Added bonus- Napheesa Collier, star of the women's team and JO's favorite, sat at the table behind us.


It was so fun to watch the game from that vantage point.  We could hear every swear that came out of Dan Hurley's mouth!  The men's team is fun to watch again!



We were so lucky and it was a great way to kick off the season!
