Today is Ute’s day. We are very much staying in a University of Utah Ute’s household and they will be taking on Oregon in Salt Lake City. Ben and Deanna drove up from Las Vegas overnight and would be going to the game as there are only 2 tickets, which meant a “home” game for us in the home theatre.

 

It was a tight game but Oregon were the better team on the day. Utah got a lucky break late in the game to get a “touchback”. A touchdown with 2 seconds to spare by Oregon sealed the game for Utahs demise. Cindy was not a happy camper.

 

We flicked back and forward to the Texas Longhorn / Kansas game which was also a close game. And once again the team we were barracking for lost at the last minute. Maybe the Longhorns will will next week when we see them live in Austin next week.

 

For a farewell to Utah dinner we headed out to Texas Steakhouse for a steak of all things. The place was packed with a huge line of patrons wanting to get in, luckily we had booked earlier so we only had a 5 minute wait. The meal was great and a fitting thank you to Allen, Cindy, Ben and Deanna for being great hosts for the week. 

Tomorrow we head to Texas to catch up with the kids for 10 days.
