My brother, the hero

As I mentioned in the last post, my brother Ammon was selected as the BYU Football "Thursday Hero." Luckily, family and close friends were invited to participate. My mother posted a good outline of events and some pictures. Here are some of the pictures we took.

Each player has a chisel and a few are selected before each game to take a piece of granite out. They are carving around the Y and it's essentially an embossed decal now.

We got a tour of the locker room. Interesting how all the big names are right next to each other.

Here's the group of us surrounding Ammon. Included are Brandon Doman, Coach Mendenhall, and Max Hall.
