We have had March Madness in our house!!! Bryson has really gotten into BYU basketball this year. He was lucky enough to go to 3 home BYU basketball games and he got obsessed with Jimmer mania. For his second quarter report card he asked for a Jimmer jersey. After we bought it at the BYU bookstore we looked in the bag with the receipt and found that we got 5 free voucher tickets for home games. We were so excited. After the Colorado State game Eric and Bryson stayed after to see if they could get Jimmer's autograph. He never came out, but he did get Brandon Davies autograph the week before he got suspended.
Eric and Bryson also went to the New Mexico game and came home bummed.
We then were faithful watchers on TV of all the rest of the games.
As a joke early in the season I asked Eric if BYU went to the NCAA tournament and played in Denver, could we go. (My parents and brothers live in Denver and the drive is 8-9 hours) He said sure. Selction Sunday came and BYU was assigned to play in Denver. I was so excited, but Eric made me find a good deal for tickets. After I looked for 2 days, Eric got on the computer Tuesday morning and found a great deal. We snagged them and drove out to Denver after work on Wednesday. The tickets that we got included all the games on Thursday and Saturday. The seats were in the upper level, but we had a lot of fun. We got to see Morehead vs Louisville, Vanderbilt vs Richmond , Gonzaga vs St Johns, and BYU vs Woffard on Thursday. It was a long day at the Pepsi Center watching basketball. We were so excited when BYU won. Thursday night during the Gonzaga vs St John's game I happened to notice the BYU team come out and watch the game. Eric took Bryson down to the lower level and Bryson went down by himself and got Jimmer's autograph on his jersey. He was so excited.
On Saturday we got to see Morehead vs Richmond and BYU vs Gonzaga. The BYU game was amazing and fun to be at especially when they won.
Outside the Pepsi Center. We got 4 tickets to the games and my Dad was able to come with us. My mom and sister in law watched the girls while we were at the games.

Final score BYU 89 Gonzaga 67
For the sweet sixteen game we had a party at our house and the kids dressed up in BYU. We were sad that BYU lost, but we had a fun season watching them and Bryson is still obsessed with Jimmer.
