What an amazing day. The fog gave it a very “football” feel.

That goal line stand by Army was damn impressive. Loved Army’s uni’s.

Fantastic win for the Black Knights.

Only having cadets in the stands was very cool in a Military way. Their day, and they rocked it.

My local bar, Lucky Lou’s, opened in 2004 and we’ve watched it there every year since.

They know we’re coming and the whole place digs it. They usually have music instead of tv audio, but they always have this game’s audio on. Whole place was silent during pregame prayer and National anthem, then it erupts in applause.

We wear our respective branch’s gear ( hats, tshirts, Bob was Army and brought a ceramic mule one year ).
Folks stop by our table, chatting us up, thanking us.

Bob and I talk smack all game. Then the post game songs are the best. Such a charge of energy when the winning team sprints to their side. Dust in my eyes, fo sho.

Easily my favorite day on the year, right behind my kid’s birthdays.

I understand the neutral field aspect, but I’d like to see it rotate through the home fields on occasion.

Congrats Army! Till next year, Go Navy!
