I was on a plane with the College of Idaho baseball team yesterday. Their mascot is the Yotes.

I love the twirling squad.

I think we morphed into a miniature Super Bowl halftime. More pix after I get home. What is really good the kids are having fun and so are their parents. Well done Jana and Shu. And the place is full of adults and families not performing but having fun.
