Is this my chance to meet Kate?

I'm sure it's interesting from a broadcasting perspective, but not rooting for your team? ugh.
now, if I could act like our homer announcers, then.... yeah. but, I'm guessing that only they get to do so.

I sat in the press box for several years. At Texas Stadium (really nice) and at Ownby (really bad). Never sat in Ford PB. It's a really interesting experience. There's talk about the game going on and loud exclamations about a particularly play (especially awhen there's a hard hit) but it's a "working" environment and not a cheerleading section. Only exception I remember was the winning touchdown in the "Miracle on Mockingbird". There was some cheering going on then. And the pre-game spread wasn't bad either. At Texas Stadium, they opened the bar after the game. Not a bad Mustang football experience at all.
