Bad timing

It was supposed to be the kids' first Varsity experience, and all signs were pointing to it being a good authentic one. We were greeted by a cacophony of "What'll ya haves?" and promptly placed our order for chili cheese dogs and a frosted orange. And that's where things started to go downhill.

It would have been okay, really, if we had gotten there about a minute earlier. Instead, we arrived at the same time as the thunder and lightning, and just in time for the power to go out. So instead of sharing french fries, we played with straws and tried on those awesome hats while we waited for the storm to pass.

In the dark.

And when the rain let up a little, we went out for pizza instead.

All things considered, I'd say the kids were not that impressed with The Varsity. Maybe next time.
