The boys were invited to take part in a guard of honour at the footy, Brisbane Lions match and we were asked if wanted to go as well. Well, of course, as the week went on, it got better, had a seat in a corporate box, had car parking, Jordan was asked to do the coin toss.
saturday evening arrived and we were early to the game but did have a bit of trouble finding the parking and the traffic was getting busy, thank goodness we had left early. Boys were lined up and then someone draped Lions scraves over them. The main woman realised that she didnt have a fifty cent coin, so asked around, I had one so it was transported out to the middle. After the Lions ran thru the banner, then the kids went thru and Aidan jumped up to grab it and got coat hanged and fell on his bum, it hurt! and he had to come off the ground with a lady he didnt know as Jordan had to then go out to the middle. It was too far away to Jordan but at least he featured on the big screen and Warren got a photo of that.
When Jd came off, we were escorted to the box. Sheri was organising to set up a credit card account to buy dinner, couldnt pay cash, when a big tray of pies arrived 16 in all. Later drinks came and then ice-creams, all I guess from BOQ. Leather footballs came for the boys and a goodie bag with stickers, ballons and a goal clacker thing. It was a good night, weather was good and it did rain but we were under cover so that didnt matter. Brisbane were winning til about the last ten minutes, it would have been an upset if they had won but it would have been nice to get a win.
