Yesterday, we put on our Gamecock gear and headed to the Colonial Life Arena to join the 14,000 other fans in welcoming home our baseball team! I still can't believe we are the National Champions! :) We got there a little too early, so by the time the team actually arrived, Addison and Fischer were ready to go. They sat in the seats for a few minutes, and thought that was cool. For the most part, they just wanted to run around, and they thought that was REALLY cool. We let them run until the team arrived (straight from the airport), and we watched that, then had to go.

Addison seemed to have fun taking in all of the cheers, music and noise. Fischer really didn't seem too impressed and just wanted to move around. I don't think we'll be trying to take them to a football game this season - yesterday answered that question for us. :)

I did manage to get some pictures and a couple of videos. It was such a neat atmosphere to be in, so I wanted to try and capture that! I also had to get picutres of Addison and Fischer in their new gamecock shirts - we stopped on the way to buy these since their other ones are now too small.

I'm sorry that the videos are a little shaky - I was holding Fischer and he kept trying to grab the camera. :) The first is of the "GAME-COCKS" cheer, and the second is the beginning of the song, '2001", as the team is about to run in. Unfortunately, I had to stop recording right before they ran in, but it was cool - they came in holding their trophy up high in the air! Then, they took a victory lap around the arena!
