Living here in Utah, especially in Provo, it is hard to find Husker Fans. When I see them I usually honk. Even if I just see a Nebraska license plate I will pull up along side them and give them the thumbs up. I was begining to think there wasn't a strong presence out here...
Then I went to Iggy's Sports Grill in Salt Lake. I was up there for a PRSSA conference, but was not about to miss the ATM game. I didn't know what to expect. I thought they would just be playing the game over the TV's and there would be some husker fans intermingled in the crowd of people. What I encountered was Husker Nation in full force!! We had our own room, the fight song was played after every touch down, chants of "Husker Power" were common, and I felt like we were going to shake down the restaurant when Purify made that catch in the corner. It was amazing. I plan on definitely going to a few games up there this season. I cannot believe I never knew about it before.
