I doubt I get all the sports in this year but my goal is to take in a home meet for every sport I am allowed to attend. Golf is likely last on the list.

Friday I did Field Hockey and Volleyball. I am not sure what is next and when but I might post it here if anyone would like to join me, or just introduce with a handshake or given some of my remarks, maybe spit in my face. I am open to a spectrum of interactions if it means meeting an App supporter.

What I did do to come up US-321 this trip as I wanted Village Inn pizza AND I really wanted to go inside the ASU-Hickory building. Being Friday after lunch it was pretty much empty of students but the library staff was happy to have me walk around. I can post pictures to a Google Drive and drop a link here for anyone interested. It is a building at the end of the day but I know some may be interested and not able to get by there.

What a great idea. Wish it had been my idea. Might try it too! See ya there.

Is the great idea to go to a home game for each team or spit in my face? If the later that has been thought about by many others over the years, so that is certainly not your idea.

Sunday has WSOC, FH, and VB but I have already committed to a family reunion. I need WSOC and XC to be the same day.


I'll post when I am heading that way. And I am going to contact the Athletic Department to see what to do about some of the less followed sports. I have not idea off there is places to watch, but I assume every sport has a bit of room for parents. That was a large part of the FH attendance.

That's a great idea. I may add that to the list. Next year is "see every football game including road games" year for me.
If you were at Friday's field hockey game you'd have seen my daughter volunteering to fetch the errant balls in one of the corners.

I’ve always wanted to someday go to every football game home and away. I’ve been going since 1972 so I’ve had plenty of chances but the closest I’ve gotten is every game but one three times. Still hoping but probably won’t happen.
