documents: #Person1#: Hi, Ruth. This is Steve speaking. How was the football game yesterday?
  #Person2#: Great. Why did you miss it? Steve?
  #Person1#: My parents didn't let me go because I had a fever. I'm still in bed.
  #Person2#: Too bad you weren't there. We all went together-- Jenny, Jimmy, George and I.
  #Person1#: It must have been freezing sitting outside, wasn't it?
  #Person2#: It was. We were all wrapped up in blankets, wool hats, and heavy coats.
  #Person1#: I hear it started snowing in the middle of the game.
  #Person2#: It did, lightly at first, then harder. But it didn't stop the game. That was the most exciting moment and it was so funny watching the players slipping in the snow.
