Bowl Road Trip Diary Days 4 (cont'd) & 5

Ten men. Two vehicles. 3600 miles. Oh yeah, a football game and a hoppin' New Year's Eve party in between car rides. Follow TGOM's Bowl Road Trip Diary from the first mile marker to the last.

The final hours of our stay in Tempe were dedicated to rest and recovery. Yeah, we slept in.

After lazing around the apartment and indulging in the arcade games of our youth at a local restaurant, we packed up whatever was salvagable and headed to nearby Glendale, AZ for dinner before embarking on another 27-hour expedition.

When all was said and done, we spent about four more hours driving to Tempe than actually staying in Tempe, but no one is complaining. Our final semester of college begins next week, and who knows what the future has in store for us. But we will always have Tempe.

Here's a few random photos from the last couple days:


Like IU vs. Oklahoma State, Dan only had a puncher's chance in this boxing game. Actually, he put up a much better fight than the Hoosiers.

In this game, you are supposed to jump over a light that circles the outer ring. By the look on Jeff's face, you can tell he hated to jump rope as a child.

Leave it to Billy to pose shirtless with a guy that spends his days playing guitar in briefs and a cowboy hat. Apparently, the Naked Cowboy is a staple in Times Square and has his own reality TV show. We caught up with him in an outdoor shopping center in Glendale. Bizarre.

This was taken outside of Yukon, Oklahoma. I guess everybody has somebody.

There she is. The world's largest McDonald's. Your cholesterol rose slightly just looking at this picture.
