But What About The Curse of Luby’s?
When we lost in the first playoff round my senior year at HP, we had gone to eat at Luby’s right before. After the loss, I was informed that the losses in the playoffs the previous two years had also come right after the team had eaten at Luby’s. This made Coach Allen (supposedly) say that the team would never eat at Luby’s before a game again. Yeah, well guess where we ate yesterday??
In the opening two drives of the game, neither team scored. We got the ball for our second drive and then managed to fumble it on the first play. This set up Kilgore for an easy touchdown, and the Luby’s Curse seemed to already be in effect. Well, it kinda ran it’s course before the touchdown was even over, as we blocked the extra point and Kilgore didn’t score again for the rest of the game. HP 38, Kilgore 6 was the final, so next week we play at Texas Stadium on Friday night against South Oak Cliff.
Some of today was spent doing homework, some watching TV, and some playing video games. I finally got around to picking up my preorder of Geometry Wars: Galaxies today, and I went ahead and tried it out. Very little in the instruction department, but it’s also not that hard of a game: shoot stuff, and avoid getting hit by the stuff you’re supposed to be shooting. Pretty addicting, actually.
