Alrite, back from the trip to Ann Arbor. Wore my Nebraska shirt. My friend from Nebraska didn't wear his and was mad I wore mine because I got many comments. I told him because Im a true Husker fan and support MY team, not anyone else's. He said well we play Western Kentucky, who cares? Oh well, anyway, like I said I got quite a few comments about my shirt. Surprising since we weren't even playing them. Most comments were joking around about my shirt, but as you would find anywhere, there were some jacka** comments. One guy said f*** the conhuskers! To this I said, "sorry your mad about a BC team beating you guys, it must be hard to swallow." One guy said we are going to poop on you guys next year...whatever that means? I got many people say welcome and very friendly. Met a few Michigan fans at a bar and they were very nice and invited us to a post-game tailgate party. Complimented the tailgaters on their fanbase and told them they need to come to Lincoln as they will most likely be invited to tailgate with some Husker fans. UConn fans seemed to be treated decently also from what I can tell. People joking around with them, but nothing personal at all.
After the game we drove around the stadium. I was drunk at this point and holding my shirt up out the window to cars and people walking by. Got many smiles and people rolling their windows down to say welcome. I told them to watch the games and support us this season. Overall a very good experience, good fanbase from what I can see but it may be different when we play them next year. (Manhattan most likely has seen diff. and disagrees with me) I would highly recommend going next year to the Big House if you can get tickets. The drive sucks but I only filled up once on the way back to Omaha, two times on the way out there. Not bad at all!
