Check out the tidbit below from an article in the Daily Camera (a CO newspaper).....
I find it hysterical that Dan Hawkins can only think as big as Nebraska Football. Colorado fans just make me laugh. I've never, nor will I ever, read about a state of Nebraska golf course painting their range-ball picker colors of a rival sports team.
Man those Coloradoin's are some good fans. Smart too! :sarcasm

Even NU has place at new CU golf course
ERIE, Colo. — In an event where black and gold were the colors of the day, it was something painted red and white that signified "University of Colorado" more than anything.
At Saturday's dedication festivities for Colorado National Golf Club -- the new home for CU's golf teams -- parked on the side of the putting green was a range-ball picking vehicle colored red and white, with a Nebraska football helmet on the roof and an "N" emblazoned on the front.
Keep in mind that range-ball pickers are often the target of people hitting balls on the practice range, and what better target for a CU fan than a symbol of the NU football team, long a dreaded nemesis of the Buffs.
And guess whose idea it was to decorate this bull's-eye of sorts with Husker symbols? None other than CU football coach Dan Hawkins, who attended Saturday's function.
