What's that maroon amid the Carolina blue??
It's my future son-in-law, Greg
You see, Greg didn't go to UNC...(I know, I know, gasp of horror inserted here). He actually went to Virginia Tech, but we'll love him anyway! His saving grace is that he does like UNC.
A few weeks ago, a friend gave us two tickets to the Carolina vs Virginia Tech football game. John and John, Jr were already going with our two tickets, so we offered the extra two to Beth and Greg. (Hey, I'll do anything to get them to come home, even give tickets to opposing team fans! ) Greg was a very good natured sport about the ribbing, especially when his team whomped ours!
Before the game we got to spend some time together.
John admitted to missing Abbey and Elijah, and they sure were glad to see him.
Bottom line, Greg being a Virginia Tech grad isn't a big deal. I really think that I can count my blessings....
We could have had a really big problem...
He could have been a State grad!!!
See, those VT grads are pretty good folk...
ReplyDeleteAnd I love that he sat to watch Little Mermaid with Abbey!
Now you've got me singing that "one of these things is not like the other" song. erg! :)
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you can be so open-minded about people with different preferences--I hear that's something they teach at that college in Chapel Hill. ha ha
