Spoiled Illini fan


Lennox has recently returned from 2+ weeks in central Illinois that were full of adventure. One highlight that he is still raving about was his very first Illini game (vs. Idaho State on Dec. 21). Thanks to Jason's Uncle Dan and Aunt Pat, he was living the high life, sitting in the FRONT ROW on the floor! He loved nearly every minute of it ... the lights and noises were fascinating! Chester Frazier was so close! Shaun Pruitt was so big! And Lennox himself was a star, getting his picture on the Jumbotron for all 16,000+ fans to see. After the first half, he was so overwhelmed from the excitement that he conked out for most of the rest of the game, even when things got really loud.

How will Lennox react when we take him to the Illinois vs. Michigan game in Ann Arbor tonight, where he will once again be sitting in the rafters? That's a tough life after starting out on the floor!
