Idea #1- Women's Basketball Game Tickets (College-Level)

      Hey peoples! Today marks the first twobrokegirls2012 date idea. Today’s idea was Collegiate Women’s Basketball Game. So Terri and I ate before we left the house and packed a crap load of snacks for the trip down. (We did, to be honest, have a cheat and we ate at a diner. However, since this trip was done in a few hours time, I’m still counting it for TwoBrokeGirls2012 because day trips can be done without eating at restaurants).

      We pulled into Lexington with two hours until tip off and walked around Lexington in weather so cold it made for HNV (or ‘high nipple visibility’). After walking into the wind shoulders first like SWAT team members without the shields, we ate at the first diner we encountered called Tin Roof Bar (http://tinroofbars.com/Home/Lexington). The food was reasonably priced and fairly tasty but it was the decore that really ‘made’ the atmosphere.

 In the restroom people write entire paragraphs on the walls about cheating men and, in the case of this picture, who to call if you’d like to ‘cuddel’ (though I suspect they intended to spell “cuddle”):









This is Terri and I at the restaurant called Tin Roof UK pre- game huddle:










The UK Ladies v. TN ladies mid-game.









Mid-Game:










The Lady Wildcats A’dia Mathies drove the lane and scored in traffic with 4.2 seconds left for the winning basket. Final Score you ask?! UK-61, TN-60. GO LADY CATS!!

Here is the immediate breakdown:
What: University of Kentucky Women’s versus Tennessee Women’s Basketball
Where: Lexington, Kentucky/University of Kentucky
When: January 12, 2012
Cost Analysis: two general admission basketball tickets picked up at Will Call = $19.50 (Gas Money is not included in outing but at 160 miles round trip , 30 miles gal, gas was under $20 round trip and the food was also under $20)
