Gymnasty

The Auburn Alabama gym meet was last night. It was the first time I've been to a gym meet at bama and, as you can probably tell from the picture, it was nuts! For those of you who don't know, Alabama is really good at gymnastics and sells out their 15,000 seat arena almost every home meet. There were fireworks, disco balls, and hugs florescent lights that spelled out "BAMA". It was like a circus. Unfortunately, Auburn lost but they did a good job and were fun to watch. 

The fans were impressively loud and the student section stood up during every Alabama girl's routine. I was severely disappointed in the Alabama fans, though, when they booed an Auburn gymnast after her music in the floor routine messed up and the judges let her start over. The poor girl went into the locker room after her routine to collect herself after being booed for a really dumb reason by 15,000 fans. I try to stand up for you guys sometimes now that I go to school there, but you make it difficult when you pull crap like this.
