On 2 January 2016, I, along with my friends Ron and Pat, spent a few hours at Gene’s drinking copious amounts of beer and watching WVU play ASU in the Motel 6 Cactus Bowl.  WVU won 43-42.

An interesting bit of trivia: a few years back a cousin of mine played football at WVU.  A few years prior to that his older brother played football at ASU. 

More trivia: my father’s cousin was once the football coach and subsequently the athletic director at ASU.
