My boyfriend played football throughout college, so I sat through a lot of football games. Home and away, I was always there. I loved that I got to watch him play almost every single game of his college career, however, I do not have the most knowledge about football. And by that, I mean none. Here are a few of the many thoughts that go through my head during a football game.

*Arrives at the stadium approximately 1 hour before the game starts to get a good seat*

Is the game starting yet, because I’ve been sitting here forever!!

Yay, football!!

Wait, what just happened?

What do they even decide in the coin toss?

He’s a captain so that's pretty awesome!

Oh god, I would be scared if he was running toward me!

GOOOO BBBBAAAABBBBBEEEEEE!!!

Thank god we all have matching shirts, that's really what's important here.

Are we on offense or defense?

How can you tell?

What does it mean when they catch the ball and then take a knee?

Why doesn’t anyone pick up the ball?

Wait, why isn’t he playing?!

Oh, we’re still on defense.

Why won’t he look at me!?

I’m cheering for him, do you think he can hear me?

Look at this super cute sign that I made and glittered myself!! He better appreciate this!

If one more person asks me what number he is, I'm going to loose my mind!! It's on my sign...DUH.

Why is this taking so long?

Is it halftime yet?

There are so many opportunities for pictures.

These cheerleaders are in my way, don’t they know I can’t see through them? I guess it doesn’t really matter too much, I don’t know what’s going on anyway.

Who wants nachos!?

Wait, I missed something cool!

What just happened?

Why did we get so many points for that?

*Asks male behind me what just happened, eye roll*

YYYYEEEAAAAHHHHH!!!! GOOOO #60!!!!!!!!!!

He definitely heard me that time!

I’m bored

And hungry

Now is it halftime?!

Okay, cool, now we get to sit for a second

Annnndddddd, third quarter.

Annndddd, I’m still confused

Will somebody tell me when we’re on offense again so that I’ll make sure and pay attention?

MADE IT ON THE BIG SCREEN WITH MY POSTER!! YESS!!!!!

This is why we come to football games.

Shoutout to my friends who come to these games with me.

Is the game over yet?

What about now?

No? Okay, still waiting

*waits approximately 30 minutes after the game just to get a picture*

OMG. SO MUCH SWEAT!! Can we not actually touch in this picture??

Okay, now we can go home.

What’s for dinner?

So basically, what I've learned is that I've learned nothing in the four years that I avidly watched football. But I had a lot of fun doing it! If you're anything like me I suggest getting a football for dummies book, or googling the majority of your questions so that you don't look completely ridiculous when you ask your boyfriend what the coin toss is for. Happy football-watching and gold star for all of you girlfriends who are at all the games rain, shine, snow, or hurricane!
