The last Cotton Bowl to be played at the Fair grounds in Dallas should be enough to motivate us to make the trip over to Dallas for the New Year.  Throw in the confluence of crazy which occured with Mike Leach and Houston Nutt on the sidelines and you had us at the first “Giggity”.  We braved two hour pregame traffic jams, sketchy downtown Dallas neighborhoods, and the mysterious attraction of confectionary fair food to bring you the following visual homage…

We are Live from the 2009 Cotton Bowl Classic, where clearly crowd control and traffic flow are of the highest priorities

Fans of the Landsharks made the trip…

As did Santa, after a holiday season that clearly took its toll…or maybe he’s just a big Kevin Smith fan.

Ole Miss fans, wearing their Sunday best.

Pregame, the Kilgore Rangerettes do the forbidden Ladder Dance of Love

The Texas Tech Bell ringer, upholding the tradition of being mistaken for a public masturbator

Ole Miss halftime shows…

…your daytime fireworks innovators.

Big 12 defense…on display in their own red zone most of the day

What overkill looks like

Our kind of victory celebration

You win if you had “special” or “one heartbeat” in the postgame speech pool.

CWAB party?  I’m there young squire.
