first time for everything

So today will be the first time I attend a sporting event at my school for a whole game. I usually wouldn't go because I have no one that would enjoy going with me, but guess what; I found someone. Andrew, my brother, has decided to go with me. I convinced him that it will be extremely fun, which it will be, and he said yes. He also said yes because his friends will be there....
So even though he is not going for me, he is going for his friends, I still appreciate it.
