My two daughters get so excited to stay up and watch the game. We do face painting and football lines and they cheer.
My daughter went to church and school saying she is asking who else is a BYU fan because we were losing to "the mean red team" 21-10 but BYU won 22-21. Unfortunately she fell asleep half way into the 4th and was carried to bed.
My wife watches most games with me but is only moderately engaged in the past. She has been getting into each game more and more until this past game she had a blanket around her neck and was biting her fingernails in nervousness. I surprised her and got tickets to the Kansas game. She has never been to a game before and I just told her and she is super excited.
