YAY! (one more bragging thread)

So, my dad has two season tickets in a great location. He HAD this lady friend that used to go to every game with him except for the one game I decided I wanted to go to each year. Anyway, he decides that he's no longer going to make her his number one priority (he was wanting to be more than friends). She suddenly decides she wants to (because she knows she won't be able to take advantage of him otherwise). Being the smart man that my dad tends to be, he doesn't go for it. She decides that she can't even be his friend anymore (just because she's not his main focus? please). She said she would feel uncomfortable going to the games with him, even though he said he still wouldn't mind her going.

Ca-ching! I get to choose the two games I want to go to now. PLUS, I am the backup person to go with dad if he doesn't find a buyer for his other ticket for each game. I know I'm going to the Packers game in November and the Chargers game in December. So far, it looks like I'm going to the home opener this weekend!

Also FYI

If you are flying to the U.S. and have a connecting flight, duty-free liquids that meet U.S. requirements will NOT be permitted through U.S. security checkpoints. If you have a connecting flight, liquid duty-free purchases must be placed in your checked baggage. Since you will be required to reclaim your checked bags prior to passing through customs inspection, you can place duty-free liquids into your bags and recheck them for your connection.

Also Customs information can be found at

Yeah you'll be fine, but I'd pack it in a cooler or something, as most baggage is not treated gingerly through the airport. You can't carry it on, so checking it is your only option. Also, bring duct tape or something to keep said cooler sealed shut so that some baggage handler doesn't "accidentally" spill the contents...
