I had family members miss Thanksgiving this year to go to cowboys game. I hate the frickin cowboys but noone gave them shite for it even behind their backs. For christmas I had family stay in Dallas and go to the game rather than coming to town for Christmas this year, I didnt go to that side of the family Christmas either tho, it has kinda gotten smaller since my great grandfather passed but I think we may do something for new years

Heat/Mavs NBA season opener in 2011. Mavs were the defending champs. The Heat took flight that day.

I went to a Knicks/Celtis game in MSG after the NBA lock out and sat court side. It was awesome.

Yeah a few times. I specifically remember Dallas saints on Christmas in 99 and Dallas saints on Thanksgiving a few years ago.

All the eagles fans here around here were headed down to the linc for the game tonight, it's too damn cold to be sitting outside for a game with this wind

Is that another bandwagon you abandoned?

And I’ve been to the tu/A&M game in 08, 09, 10, and 11 and also the lsu/A&M game in 14. I knew what was coming in 16 so I let other family members go

Been to several turkey day Aggie Texas games. Part of my family attended also, the other part understood it was something you have to deal with

I've never been to one, but I would be pumped for anyone that had the chance to go to one. I would jump at it if it came up.

No, but the only games that have ever really been close to me on those days are the Alabama State game on Thanksgiving, and the old Blue/Gray game on Christmas. Never had a desire to go to either if them.

Been to the cowboys games on thanksgiving two times. My cousin works for them and got to eat, be on the field, watch the game and got to go to valley ranch a few times. This was years ago though and not in the new stadium.
