Two trips in one thread. 10000s of pictures.

In an attempt to make one totally awesomical tight rad thread, I'm combining the pictures from two trips I've taken over the past three weeks.

  • ++ LOS ANGELES // THE ROSE BOWL ++



2005-01-08001.jpg

The view from our hotel room. We were staying waaaay up north in Arcadia because the woman's parents were kind enough to use Marriott points to foot what would have been a $1000 bill for a 5-night stay.

We had very, very good seats for the game. [*note - for those of you unaware of what the Rose Bowl is: it's a college football championship game. Not the overall championship game, mind you, but one of the top four. This year it was Texas v. Michigan.]

The only day it didn't rain on us was game day. The weather gods took huge craps all over southern California the week we were there, plus the weeks before we arrived and after we left.

Me in 40 years.

Best place I've ever been to watch a game.

 

 

2005-01-08010.jpg

Not me.

The view from where we were tailgating.

The view from our seats. Note the Texas fan giving the finger to the Michigan band.

A B2 bomber flew over the stadium before the game. I shed a tear and punched an Arab. FOR AMERICA.

Victory! A field goal by Texas as time expired gave us the win. Everyone in the stands went fucking bonkers.

Our MVP, QB Vince Young. He threw for 180 yards and a TD, as well as rushing for 192 yards and 4 fucking TDs. If you’re not a football fan and those stats don’t mean much to you, just understand that he had the best individual performance out of any player in any of the bowl games.

Part of one of the Rose Parade floats. Everything on all of the floats is made from something once-living – petals, flowers, beans, bark, whatever.

A good summary of our trip: behind the wheel in nasty weather.

OMG

There was, obviously, tons of graffiti, especially all over the freeways. But I was driving. So this is what you get.

  • ++ VIRGINIA // VAGINA SALIVA ONER’S ++

 

 

 

As I mentioned in the VSO Going Away thread, VSO moved to Winchester, Virginia [a bustling metropolis of 25,000] about 6 months ago. Dumptruck and I traveled there to see what the hell he’s doing.

Hi, DC.

I wonder if they put the “(see other side)” after the fact when they realized people were staring at a blank wall for extended periods of time.

It’s cool - we’re just hangin’ out.

“B to the E.” Let’s be serious.

Watching the NFL playoffs in HD is pure wow.

The house VSO is staying in predates the Civil War, where it was used as a hospital. The house is huge and has to be haunted.

Picture that belongs to an ex-girlfriend of VSO’s uncle. Who is it? Does it really matter?

Nice thread, nice pictures! That game was awesome, and you're lucky to have been there (in third row, no less) to have seen it in person.

 

The only things that disturbed me was the Rams/SeaHawks game, as I once again picked the wrong team. Also, the facial hair and the B to the E. That's some fucked up shit. The interior of VSO's place looks nice.
