Encroachment.

No call.

Since last game in old stadium, local ambulance company delivered game ball. I think they plan to drop some coin on the stadium upgrade and wanted some pub. #55 receiving the football is my son. Senior captain. of course we could not use the actual ball they delivered because it hadn't been approved by the U. LOL!

Of course this did delay opening kick off about 7 minutes so I guess we were lucky to not get a DOG on first kick off!

You would think that whoever planned this could have figured out how long the helicopter thing would take and could have worked it out so the game didn't start late.

I think wind was a factor and there was a possiblity of scrubbing the mission.
In the grand scheme of things I don't think 7 minutes was a big deal.

I would've been happy to check the ball in. Our LJ checks in the game balls (while the U and I meet with the coaches) and we had one delivered this season by members of the cross country team who ran the ball to the BJ at K's free kick line. He checked it in on the spot.

A 7 minute delay? Who cares, really?

Or, in other words, some people just need to "Lighten up, Francis."

No one did care. I guess the U could have approved the ball as well, we just used one of the other 7 we had already checked in.
