Two Fridays ago I got on a plane to Indianapolis with an end destination of West Lafayette, IN. The goal of the weekend: cheer the Irish on to their first victory from inside Ross-Ade Stadium.

Halfway through the flight I woke up suddenly in a cold sweat -- I forgot to bring the game tickets. Awesome.

Two and a half hours, a dozen text messages, half a dozen phone calls, and $42 in FedEx charges gets my tickets overnighted to me. They arrive two hours before game-time, making me miss the tailgating.

On top of it all, we go lose and go 0-5.
