Last year this time we were making plans to go to the Go-Daddy Bowl in Mobile. Right now, we are planning to go to the Orange Bowl in Miami. Is there a difference between the two bowls? You betcha there is.
Although, we sure had a great time at that last one and played Arkansas State, a team and school that reminded us very much of out NIU. This year, the opponent will be Florida State. That is a huge jump in competition and we sure are hoping for the best. Our team is hot and on a roll, but alas, we are still mid-major which always means difficulty when we play one of the Big Boys.
We have already gotten a room for New Year's Eve and day as we plan to drive down. Last year, we paid $40 a ticket for the Go-Daddy Bowl, but now that we are in the land of the Big Boys, prices have certainly gone up. Lowest nose-bleed seats in the end zone are $75 and go up to $225.

RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
