Go 10 for 10, and the bonus is round trip airfare to both games !
Each of the five high school games are State Playoff contests. The home team is the one on the right.
The Canadian Football League game is the Grey Cup, their version of the Super Bowl 🏈 so it’s being played on a neutral site
The Western Hockey 🏒 League is a step or two below the NHL and is based in Washington state and Canada 🇨🇦. Yes, I have been to each place because I can’t help myself. The Vancouver Giants play their home games in Langley, a suburb of the Big City.
We care about Furman University Women’s Basketball because of Alyssa Ervin.
We care about Duke football 🏈 because it’s Duke football !
We care about Lake Stevens because two of our kiddos went to school there.
Anacortes because Fidalgo Island 🏝 is where Crystal Clear Delivery was founded.
UW Women because of Kelsey Plum
Fife at Lynden is being played a few miles from the place in Blaine, which will be home 🏡 for the next week.
Orcas Island Vikings soccer ⚽️ because it was home for 7 years.
I’m not sure what it is about the WHL game other than fond memories….
The Grey Cup because it is the Grey Cup !!!!!!!
________________________________
Here are my sentimental picks – Home team in all five high school games, UW and Furman women, Montreal in the Grey Cup, Vancouver in the hockey 🏒 and sadly, the Miami Hurricanes 🌀 over the Duke Blue Devils – man I would love to get that one wrong…..
2 on Thursday, 2 on Friday, 5 on Saturday, and the Big One on Sunday…
Bonus will be the college hoops on both Tuesday and Wednesday before flying back across the country on Thursday.
If you have five minutes and feel smart….
