… more cowboy hats this year, Texas fans more annoying than sc fans, I met incoming player Mallory Lebreche’s parents, I sat with Sally Perez’s family, my ‘Gulf of Mexico’ shirt had 3 responses (all very positive), an 80 year old Ukrainian woman came up and spoke in her native language. I didn’t understand so I hugged her (I was wearing a Ukraine flag shirt), met a woman who played with coach Jenny Johnson Jordan on the National Team and finally, I will miss next year’s championship (after attending 5) as my daughter is getting married.
