For The Love of Cocky

There was a lot for us to learn when we first moved to South Carolina. I quickly caught on that when people were talking about the "Cocks" around here, they were using the noun very differently than I had heard it used in the past. These people LOVE Gamecock football. Caleb, a little friend from the neighborhood, is such a fan, his parents paid "Cocky" to come for a little birthday half-time show.


Molly and her baby, were quite comfortable posing with Cocky.


Lindsey was more comfortable throwing a football at him. That was about as close as she got to him all party.

The Barrett boys LOVED Cocky. Walker, the one on the right, is the boy Molly is planning on marrying. He might have different plans.

All the kiddos and Cocky

Molly kicks her first field goal. She says football is now her favorite sport and she "goes for the Gamecocks and Lindsey goes for the Tigers."

A fun party for all of the Gamecock fans and non Gamecock fans. I could possibly get on board if they would only consider changing their name!
