Gameday Drive

Authors Note: In this piece I am describing a scene that happened over my Christmas break. It takes place on the day of new years eve

When I woke up on New Year’s Eve I found my little brother throwing stuff at me and screaming at me to wake up and that I needed to get up for the Wave game. It was around eleven thirty and we were leaving in ten minutes my neighbor Jackson was already at my house ready to go so I rushed upstairs and put on some pants a shirt and my SC Waukesha jacket. I then grabbed a pop-tart and headed out the door and into the car on the ride to the game it was me my brother, cousins and friend Jackson in the car. We were following another family to the game. My cousin Rachel being the great driver she is didn’t see the other family’s vehicle exit the highway and made a late turn cutting off another driver. She then didn’t see the car we were following make another turn and cut off the same vehicle and got a less than friendly hand gesture pointed in our direction. I'm still not sure if the gesture was given to us for my cousins bad driving, my other cousins waving to the person we just cut off… twice, or the combination. We then stopped at a stop light where the car we cut off was side by side with us. When the light turned green they threw their water bottle out of their car and into our direction. Their throw missed our car we then continued to drive into a overpriced parking lot and went into the game.
