Games Tigers Play- 2nd belt loop ( Needed)

Games Tigers Play
Honestly, we signed up for Tiger Day, which did most of the requirements for this adventure.
You can find out more by looking at my post on it.
Tiger Day!
It covers these requirements!
Requirement 1A
Requirement 1B
Requirement 1C
Requirement 2
Requirement 3

Requirement 4 asks for you to go to a sporting event and ask the coach/player question. We went  to a Junior High Football game ( we are in Texas and everyone loves football!). One of our old neighbors ( a friend from my son)  plays football for the team so we asked the parents if he can interview him at the game. They said sure. So we rushed over there ( which was over 40 min drive) and still was late. But we got to see most of the game! My son was more interested in playing with the younger siblings, who he hasn't seen in about 6 months. I don't like using names on my blog but we did get to watch #41 play, who we found out was the captain of that team. And since we couldn't interview him before the game, he was nice enough to let my son call later that evening and ask him 2 questions.
Why do you like playing football? Answer: It is fun. ( my son won't try because he doesn't want to get hit...LOL)
What do you do to get ready for a game? Answer: we get our pads and jerseys on. Then if it is an away game, we get on the bus to go play.
His team lost this game but won the last. We still said it was a great game and we had fun. Then we thanked him for allowing us to go and he thanked us for coming. ( These kids have the best manners. Their parents raised them right!)
And after the game, we had sushi! So it was a win/win for us.

Requirement 5 asks that you bring a nutritious snack to a den meeting. Well, at our last den meeting, my son brought pretzels because it was a healthy alternative snack. 
Make sure to ask the den leader what kind of allergies the kids have. We only have 2 boys in our den so it was easy. And the other scout had to make up a game for our den, that way both boys got to sign off on something.
