I love game day and so do most college students, however it seems like every single game day I make at least one dumb mistake I know I could have avoided. But I don’t feel that bad about it because almost everyone makes these same mistakes no matter how long they have been going to games.
1. Wearing Sunglasses to an Evening Games
It starts off sunny, but after about 30 minutes, when the sun sets, your glasses become an annoying hazard.
2. Wearing Cute Shoes That Always Hurt Your Feet
When you are putting on your boots/heels you tell yourself at least you look cute and maybe this time your feet won’t kill you, but after the first quarter you are taking off your shoes because your feet ache and wishing you had just worn your comfy shoes.
3. Not Bringing a Water Bottle to the Game
You were too lazy to carry it around during tailgates and now you are sitting there debating if you’d rather spend $6 to get water or just continue being dehydrated.
4. Accidentally Cheering for the Wrong Team
The football players are so fall away and let’s be real you weren’t paying attention for a moment there so you definitely just cheered for the other team and now you feel pretty dumb.
5. Buying Food at the Game
The concession food smells so good and you are so hungry, but it’s over priced and going to make you feel like crap. Not to mention if you bring it back to your seat, all of your friends around you are going to ask for a bite.
6. Taking Your Parents to Tailgates
Mom and Dad are in town for the game, and you have a few hours to kill before the game, take them to some tailgates because that will be fun right? No, wrong, bad idea.
7. Dressing for the Instagram Pictures not the Weather
Whether it’s super hot or cold, you didn’t care, you just wanted to look cute for the pictures, but now that you’re at the game and the pictures have been taking you are regretting your outfit choice.
8. Having too Much Fun at Tailgates
After all that excitement of tailgating, all your energy is gone and now you’re not even sure you can make it to the game.
9. Bringing too many Belongings and No Bag
Bags aren’t allowed at games, but you definitely need your wallet, keys, Chap Stick, sunglasses, and phone, so you can probably just hold them all, right? No you can’t.
