UH vs Rice Pre-Game Adventures
Not even the gloomy weather could stop Phi Rho's from having a great Saturday, or should I say FOOTBALL SATURDAY?!
Our Pre-game Brunch occurred at the one of the Lofts' corner lounges. Juliet worked with Lauren in baking and preparing a great brunch. Some of our foods included: Buffalo Chicken Ranch pies, sandwiches, apple cinnamon oatmeal, cereal, donuts, blueberry banana muffins, danishes, and of course cereal. Everything was delicious! All in all, we had a total of 6 interested girls attend our brunch. We were able to play some games, which included 2 Truths and a Lie where we learned everything from girls' favorite sports teams (It's okay if you don't love the Texans or Rockets, we still love y'all) to finding out who vintage motorcycle rides. Afterwards, we proceeded to play a very fun game of Captain on Deck which had us creating lamp houses, sweeping the deck, and even creating octopi with our bodies. Brunch is definitely a great meal of the day, as I experienced by trying for the first time ever oatmeal & danishes (they're delicious by the way). We hope to continue the tradition alive by having more sister brunches like this one. A tradition is definitely in the making.
Upon the conclusion of our brunch, some girls headed over to Reliant for Bayou Bucket tailgating. SHPE, MAES, HBSA, OdPhi, and our Triangle Brothers joined together to create an amazing tailgate filled with dancing, eating, and hanging out before the big game. It was great to see so many people come together in support of a great game.
Despite that this was the last Bayou Bucket for many years to come, we definitely figured out a way to go all out for it. Having brunch, tailgating, and meeting new people definitely made it a great experience. I could not think of a better way to end such a great rivalry than with some of the most amazing people I have met. All in all, there might not be more Bayou Buckets, but there's time to continue making more memories and having a great time. Of equal importance is the fact that UH won against Rice!! GO COOGS!!!
