I was going to try to use the video option at one point (mostly because Maya was dancing in the huddle to Beyonce...), but the camera battery was a little sketchy and I didn't want to risk running out.
Regarding the darkness, I'm quite impressed with how the pictures of the USA players came out, considering it was really dark when they were taken during the intros. Now, if I could have just have had some of them not always have their backs to me, that would have been nice!
The other two problems were the security guard and the complete lack of movement I could undertake - just a step or two either way, and I might have managed more than backs 90% of the time!
And yeah... Diana didn't do still at all!
I KNOW! And I was looking at tickets for the Seattle game and last time I looked this afternoon, the exact same seat was available and I was contemplating it. Though Sue and Lauren wouldn't be on the bench as much as Sue and Diana were in this game!
I was so jittery about which bench would belong to whom; the US team were warming up at the opposite hoop, but then guys with USA logoed shirts were bringing stuff over to the bench and I was trying to not get too excited, but then the assistant coaches came and sat down and "eeeeeeeee"
(It's fine to show bias! Considering the bias I showed with taking the pictures in the first place!)
Diana was ALWAYS RIGHT THERE.
SO TRUE! And also in the open practice the previous day, they were pretty much always together on the sidelines, only I couldn't get any pictures of that, because again, the lack of movement problem!
Also, since I didn't say before: the pen thing is kind of cute.
Oh, the pen thing got even worse. I got a Huskies flag I'm getting signed by Huskies, and because it's obviously blue, I was planning a silver and gold color scheme, and I wanted Swin to sign in gold, but I couldn't find it and she had the normal sharpie and was like, "I could just sign with this?" but that wouldn't have worked. Thankfully I found the silver, so now this means that only Diana and Sue get to sign in gold. If I ever get to get Diana's autograph that is.
