My youngest brother Barry is graduating from Texas Tech in December. He was at the game on Saturday when Tech beat Oklahoma. Afterwards he called my dad and said (roughly):

“Dad, you’ll be so proud of me. I didn’t rush the field right at first because the cops were arresting people and I didn’t want to get arrested right before I graduate. So I waited for the second wave of people to rush the field once the cops had been overwhelmed and were just letting everyone go!”

My roommate’s younger brother is Barry’s roommate, and when she asked him about rushing the field he said, “Nah, if I’m going to get arrested in Lubbock it’s going to be for something good.”

Our little brothers are so wise.
