He did really well. There were a few parts that scared him, but he did great in his momma's arms. We ate an Arby's roast beef while we watched, and that also calmed him down.
To top it off, I wanted to make sure that the experience was completely unhampered. Nebraska was playing Northwestern at the exact same time as the movie, so I made a bold move: No football. No watching the game while we were trying to get ready. No text updates from Uncle Reid. No asking people in the popcorn line if they knew the score. No running back to the car afterward to see if ESPN radio was reading off a score. I didn't watch one single second of the game, and I didn't even DVR it.
I waited all the way until we got home and got Cash's bath started before I checked the score on-line, and HOLY COW, was that a great decision!! Nebraska lost by 3 points at home to a 3-5 Northwestern team, so I'm really glad I handled things the way I did. The only memory I have of yesterday was a great experience with my family out at the movies.
