Drinks are on me boys

Daughter of got her D1 offer last night. Not sure I should name the school—-she hasn’t accepted yet (but will be) but let’s just say I’ll be spending a lot of time in SC starting in the springtime of 2025. Not full ride but still a really generous offer with roughly 90% of everything covered between athletic and academic scholarships.
Best part for mom and pops was when the call ended, she immediately started crying out of happiness—-it has been an insanely difficult process, almost cruel at times, and to see her realize the payoff was a moment I’ll never forget. Cheers boys, thanks for putting up with me ramble and vent about this stuff for a couple years now.

It’s not about the money, it’s about the people. Like the nice Mexican family who give me blank stares when I welcome them and ask if they’d like a buggy, or the wonderful teenagers who say “F you, old man” when I ask to see their receipt. You can’t just vacate a rewarding career like this.
