What a successful trip. Everything was perfect. The boys had a great college visit. Friday was fried chicken for breakfast. We went by the baseball stadium, only to find out there was an intrasquad World Series going on later that afternoon. The Garnet and Black World Series. The campus tour was amazing. The boys got to sit behind MLB scouts and their radar guns at the baseball game. It was 85 and sunny, so perfect afternoon weather to hang out in the shade in shorts and T-shirts. Our tour guide gave us an amazing tip for BBQ for dinner. I was introduced to white Alambama BBQ sauce. We walked the streets down town and grabbed some ice cream. Day one was the perfect tour.
Day 2 was Game Day. We went out to Williams Brice Stadium where the Gamecocks were 14 point underdogs to Tennessee. We did the whole tailgating thing. We had been invited to a tailgate randomly the night before. We went through Gamecock Park and Gamecock Village. We saw the. Gamecock Walk. We saw the line of Cabooses by the stadium. And then the game was fantastic. The home team won by 3. The place was going bonkers the whole time.
The quote of the weekend was Caz - "It is so peaceful here." If the South didn't sell itself to Caz on this trip, nothing will.
