Ah yes! The infamous weekend arrives. The traditional in-state rivalry between the Boise State Broncos and the University of Idaho Vandals. Too bad the ESPN major stations don’t want to carry it and most of the 60000 fans (combined total of BSU and U of I fans) here in Idaho will be shut out of watching the game. So we made the Pico de Gallo BSU Style to devour during the game, as the Broncos will do to the Vandals. (Yes, we were lucky enough to know someone who has ESPNU) Do you see the Blue and Orange in the Pico de Gallo? There’s a lot of it all through the dish.
Do you see any Black and Gold in there? Probably not. There’s nothing left to symbolize the Vandals after they visit Boise. Our Grandson Chris can’t even stay at home to watch the game. He says there is too much “interference” to stay and watch the game with his Mother, Grand Mother, Grand Father and Mac. The blue and the orange represents the Broncos and the red represents what’s left of the Vandals at about 5:00pm. Oh well, guess what ever will be, will be. Mac and I will tip a glass of MacTarnahan’s Ale to the Vandals and say, “Fare thee well”! Cheers!
