The Lucky Sweatshirt
My dad, my two brothers, and I are all football fans. Yet as far as we can remember, we’ve never all gone to a football game together. Or rather, we hadn’t, until last Thursday. My dad managed to get four tickets to see Brett Favre and the 10-1 Green Bay Packers take on Tony Romo and the 10-1 Dallas Cowboys at Texas Stadium.
Here we are:
I’ve been a Dallas fan since shortly after I moved down to Waco to go to law school back in the early 1990s. So after following them on TV for all these years, it was a real thrill for me to see them play in person–and see them win. (I went to a preseason game a few years ago, but it’s not the same. Especially since they lost the preseason game.)
Under my jacket, I was wearing my lucky Dallas Cowboys sweatshirt. Why is it my lucky sweatshirt? Because the Cowboys have never lost a game while I was wearing it.*

Woo hoo! Also a Cowboys fans. Went to Dallas to see them a few years ago. What a great year they are having!
