Senior Day - 33 Years Ago - 1981

[T_O_Bull]

On a beautiful day in late November my wife and I sat in the sun on the 40 yard line, three rows down from the top of the East Stadium. We were in the sun, we were warm, even for late November, and our beloved Huskers were on the field below and the Seniors were being introduced individually. A few minutes later it was announced that WB Anthony 'Slick' Steels would be singing the National Anthem. In my mind I thought, "Oh no. Another botched rendition of the Stars Spangled Banner is about to happen." I could not have been more wrong. Young Mr. Steels sang this very hard Anthem perfectly. Just as it should be sung. It was a very special moment, One that I will never forget.

No, but once I sh#t my pants when I was about 29 without realizing it even came out until I felt that warm feeling down there #flupoopypants

The coaching staff sh#ts itself on a weekly basis. Must be the stadium.

Wish there was footage of that.

 

(The anthem. LOL. Other things in this thread, not so much.)

 

I loved Steels... My fav memory was the halfback pass in the Orange Bowl vs Clemson. Pity about the rest. That was the first game I watched on TV from start to finish with my dad.

I think Curtis Craig, Roger's older brother and Husker wingback, sang a pretty good National Anthem himself.
