When I got in the stadium, the skilled players were already warming up. Below, Todd Pendland fields a kickoff. You can see the cast on his left hand that keeps his two middle fingers straight. All he had to work with was his thumb, forefinger, and little finger.
The Band shows up and announces their arrival by playing "Jolie Blonde" on the ramp.

The players high step during warmups.
The Db's huddle up after completing their postion drills.
A shot of the father and son team, Rick and Jeremy Humphrey, that work the chains on the sideline. They have been on the McNeese chain gang together for a few years.
The players, coaches, trainers, managers, etc. kneel for a quick prayer before heading back to the dressing room.
A shot of the refereeing crew from the Big Sky Conference. Most of them had snow on the ground from where they came and were glad to be doing a game down here. They did a pretty fair job letting the teams play.
A couple of shots of the Band during their pre-game performance.
The Cowgirl Kickers kick high during their performance.
The U.S. Flag is raised during the playing of the National Anthem.
Then it was time for the skydivers. Below, ParaPoke makes his usually hit and roll landing. He has been warned about landing on his feet (bad omen normally) but it didn't help this game.
Head Cheerleader Jimmy Heath was the second to touchdown.
The third skydiver was carrying the Cowboy Club flag.
The fourth one had the U.S. Flag.
The senior captains for this game were Qb Derrick Fourroux, OT Casey Richter, TE Wes Mangan, and LB Matt Kreamer.
A shot of the cointoss. UNH won and elected to receive.
UNH brought a good group of fans. Too bad we didn't get to see any of them in the westside tailgate area.
LB Joe Narcisse comes out of the smoke in the tunnel and shows the crowd that the Cowboys were bringing "the wood". I think we need more wood next time. :-)
He then leads the Cowboys onto the field.
