In the afternoon, we decided to go to Target on Move-In weekend. It is like we were amateurs at this whole "moving to college" thing. Luckily, we found a parking spot or two and continued our journey to stock up on some necessities. You know you have been cooped up when you are excited to purchase a new toothbrush.
Once we got back, we planned to meet in 30 minutes to attend this Hokie Hi Picnic thing. Apparently, it is a big thing at Virginia Tech to attend this picnic. All of the dining halls close during this time to prep for the students, staff, friends, and families who attend this event. Strategically, we came an hour after it started to ensure there was no line for the food. When Jenny and I arrived, we were confused upon the entrance to this little shindig. There was a split entrance with band members going to the left and what appeared to be the general public going to the right. Luckily for us, this fine volunteer pointed us in the direction of the band...
Continuing down the walkway, we were greeted by about 10 other volunteers. They were super pumped about giving some hi-fives. Jenny and I were super confused. As we continued down the tunnel, we began to realize we were the only ones who were heading into the football player entrance to Lane Stadium. And we were surrounded by about 50 people waiting to cheer us on. Where was everyone else?!
Let me tell you... they were happily sitting in their seats watching this fiasco unfold. Apparently, we were corralled into the entrance for first-year students who wanted to rush the field. We looked less-than-thrilled. It wasn't until we got our food and our seats that we realized there was another entrance and that we were the only individuals within the past 30 minutes to make an entrance. And we also realized that this was truly not a picnic... #HokieFail
