What a long, crazy day. 12 hours of filming, began at 5:30am. My feet and legs are killing me, I'm tired as ****. I had an awesome time.
The entire day all we filming was coming out of the tunnel at the beginning of the game. 12 hours... for about one minute of footage, crazy. And you wonder why movies cost so much to make.
There were about 3000 "fans" in the stands, the full University of Texas band and cheerleading squad. Bevo, the mascots, etc.
Before every home UT game the team gathers in the tunnel, music plays, team gets hype and krunkified (lots of jumping and screaming), then smoke fills the end of the tunnel and the team runs out of the smoke through a tunnel of cheerleaders, the band, etc. About a 90 yard sprint. We did this about 30 times total.
I'm ******* tired. The cheerleaders are hot as hell. 12 hours of straight hitting tomorrow. Time for bed. I got some good pics, will post them soon.
Here's a link to the web site they used to recruit the fans. Gives an overview of the plot and some background on the the cast.
I got to meet Tommy Lee Jones today. Shook his hand and spoke with him for a couple of minutes. He's as big of bad *** in person as on film. Although he siad he wasn't alllowed to take a picture with me.
Oh well.
I get to stare at cheerleaders and play football for another 12 hours tomorrow while getting paid. This is rough.
