I hate to even admit this. The events leading up to Saturday's kickoff were pretty emotional and left me feeling like a blubbering idiot. It started when I got a glimpse of DJK crying as he ran out to hug his adoptive parents on senior day. It continued through the National Anthem and reached a sonic boom in sync with the flyover. I about lost all control when I saw the grown man in front of me crying after the flyover. Why did I leave my damn sunglasses in the car???

BEST FLYOVER EVER!!!!!!!!
It's the mom in you, something literally changes in our DNA. I cry at the drop of hat, and never considered myself "a cryer".
I am SO glad to hear I wasn't the only one fighting back tears the whole time. Proud parent/child moments get me every. single. time. And I'm always moved when they feature a UofI child patient.
Oh lord, tears are welling up just thinking about it!!
Oh, the UI child patient had me crying also. And then Dan Gable was trying not to cry during his little ditty and I was crying at that too. Good grief. The entire game was a cry-fest. Not to mention the way the Hawks were playing...
