Trip To Spokane--WSU Game

I had a great weekend, WSU Cougars game not withstanding.  We have been invited for years to the WSU Shriner's game where my friend Louie is active in supporting the Shriner's Children's Hospital in Spokane.  
On Friday, I flew with my friends to Spokane  where we got our rooms at the Northern Quest Casino.  We joined friends for dinner that night at Fire Artisan Pizza in downtown Spokane.
On Saturday, we took the one and twenty minute bus ride to Pullman for the game.  We had a stop before we left Spokane at the Shriner's Hospital for a brief presentation.
Upon arriving in Pullman in late afternoon, our group of about 50 began selling T-shirts (above) in the WSU to benefit the Shriner's Hospital.  It has been a 30 year tradition that he has raised money for the hospital.
Last year's Cougar Quarterback, Gardner Minschew (bottom picture), hot off a great game Thursday filling in for Nick Foles of the Jacksonville Jaguars had flown in for the game.  The crowd gave a rousing cheer for the lovable Minschew.
The game was great until our Cougars blew a 49-17 lead over the UCLA Bruins to be defeated 67-63 it was a collapse of epic proportions.
The mood on the bus was rather subdued as we bussed back to Spokane after a game that ended at 11:30 in the evening.
Today, we all flew back to Seattle.

Minschew Mania Takes Place In Jacksonville

Gardner Minschew, who took the WSU Cougars to new heights in 2018, has set a franchise record in Jacksonville by becoming the first rookie quarterback for that team to pass for over 600 yards.
A 6th round draft pick, Minschew wound up taking over for the injured Nick Foles in week 1 of the NFL season.
Reports say that Minschew mania is taking place in Jacksonville, fans are drawn in by his mustache  and charisma, as well as his brilliant play.
The Minschew lead Jaguars beat the Tennessee Titans 20-7 in this week's Thursday night match.

Gardner Minshew Honored In Seattle

Gardner Minshew II grabbed the imagination of all Cougar fans as he led WSU to it's first 11 win season.  Now the graduate transfer quarterback from East Carolina has won Male Sports Star Of The Year at the MTR Western Sports Star Awards sponsored by the Seattle Sports Commission.  He is the first Cougar to win that award.  

Minshew swept into Pullman like a new sheriff  in a western movie to lead a team rocked by the tragic death of quarterback starter apparent Tyler Hilinski after the previous season. His mustache inspired fans (both men and women) to wear fake mustaches.

Briana Stewart of the WNBA champion Seattle Storm was honored with Best Female Sports Star.
