Sullivan and I had the great opportunity to visit the Darrel K Royal Stadium this evening. Each year the UT Football organization chooses a local children’s group to treat to a night with the Longhorn players and coaches and this year Wonders and Worries was the recipient group. We toured the entire Moncrief-Neuhaus Athletic Complex that houses the locker, training and meeting rooms, the coaches and team offices, the trophy’s and player lounge, and much more more. After our tour we gathered in their assembly hall and met with Mack Brown and the coaches and learned about the world of the UT football player and their many awards and accomplishments. Then of course ended the evening with free time and visiting with the players on the field of the Darrel K. Royal Stadium. The Longhorn band was there playing game favorites, Bevo, the UT cheerleaders, and Sullivan’s favorite, HE-Buddy (which he literally would not leave alone the entire night. Colt MaCoy, Major Applewhite, and Mack Brown were strolling around and all Sullivan wanted to do was go over and say “Hi” to HE-Buddy. He had a blast though running on the field, throwing the football with players, flirting with the cheerleaders, and teasing Bevo who he kept calling a Cow. Here are some of our pictures from the evening. Everybody loved his little UT football suit with Longhorns written on the buns (hand me down from the Baskin clang) which the cheerleaders could not resist as you can see in this lovely picture of Sullivan with a gaggle of them. He really seemed to hold the football like a natural too…..never known…maybe someday he’ll play on that field…football or trumpet who knows 🙂
