As most of you know Landon graduated from ASU and is therefore an ASU fan. Well to Landon's chagrin Tommy is a Georgia fan. How does a father go so wayward as to raise his son a Georgia fan? The story goes something like this:
Our family was having dinner at a pizza joint in California called Round Table Pizza. Landon gave each of our kids a fist full of quarters to spend as they wish. Not 2 minutes later did Tommy come running over with this in hand:
This is one of many photos of this ball taken by Tommy
Tommy had won this precious little football from the claw machine that you guide around and hit the button when your ready for it to clamp down on an unsuspecting toy (See Toy Story). In Tommy's First attempt at the cheap but luring toys below he retrieved this football. To our dismay he has been a Georgia fan ever since.
When Landon and Tommy arrived at the game Tommy informed Landon that he would not be cheering for ASU even though Tommy was decked out in ASU gear (proper fatherly brainwashing). Tommy insisted that he leave his gold devils hat in the car and opted to wear his t-shirt inside out. Tommy was sure that he could not be seen wearing ASU and cheering for Georgia. Little did Landon know that their seats were smack dab in the middle of a myriad of Georgia fans. Lets just say Tommy made lots of new friends and got a little cocky in the process.
Landon placed a friendly wager with Dan Gelderman at work over the outcome of the game. In essence if Georgia wins Landon had to drive around for a week with Georgia decals on his car. If ASU wins then Dan would have to wear Landon's "good luck" ASU hat around the office for a week. Here are the pictures of who won:
Tommy loved it. Luckily for the guy at work, he didn't have to wear this:
Be ever so grateful that you can't smell through the computer. I beg Landon to let me buy him a new hat.
