  1. Never started a topic before so I hope I'm doing this right and it's in the right place and all that.

     

    I need to try to find, if I can, 5 tickets to either the Oct. 10th, Oct 24th or Nov. 7th games. My son just came out of the Air Force and the last thing we did before he left was to go to a Husker game. It's all we've talked about doing this fall and yet, somehow, time got away from me and now I'm scrambling for tickets for me, him, his new East-Coast-We're-Trying-To-Convert-Her wife, my other son, and my Dad, because I can't leave him home. He would cry. A lot.

     

    I used to just buy tickets on Ebay. Is that still a good option? I have heard some bad things about people not getting real tickets and things like that. Also, where are other good places to go to look for tickets?

     

    Finally, if anyone here has any/can help me out at all, please message me.

     

    Thank You.

  2. Out of Staters:
    Where do you currently live? Iowa
    Where have you lived the longest? Iowa
    Where has been your favorite place to live/visit? I still miss home, i.e. Nebraska but I love my acreage "across the river". My favorite place to visit right now is wherever my kids are.
    Where is your ideal place to live? I just want to live somewhere with a minimum of snow and a minimum of poisonous creepy crawlies. Kentucky is awfully pretty. Or North Carolina.

    Work:
    What is your current occupation? Librarian
    What has been your best job ever? Librarian
    Worst job? Meat cutter in a packing house.
    Dream job? I would love to be completely self-sufficient. Do it all myself: electricity, everything. But in this world you have to have insurance and pay taxes and those folks won't barter for fresh produce. I'd love to write or review books even, if I could make a living at it.

    Hobbies:
    What do you enjoy doing in your free time? Garden, read, tend my chickens, bake or cook a little, genealogy, drink a beer and sit around the fire.
    Strangest/most interesting hobby, skill or personal anecdote? My strangest hobby is researching medieval feasts and fasts. I also sometimes make things that I could just as easily buy like dishwashing soap, vanilla extract, apple cider vinegar. The personal anecdote is always whip out for questions like this is that I was born on the reservation but I'm not at all Native American. People not from Eastern Nebraska seem to find that fascinating.

    2) What/who led you to The Nation? Born in it.

    3) Where are you from originally? Nebraska

    4) Where do you live now? Iowa

    5) Favorite Husker memory? Right now, I'm still stuck on Westerkamp's behind the back catch. But there was a hit on a Wyoming quarterback....used to watch that over and over on youtube.

    6) Worst Husker memory? The year I realized we weren't going to a bowl game.

    7) Number of home games attended? 4

    8) Number of away games attended? 2

    9) Favorite Husker memorabilia/apparel? My t-shirt that has the Husker prayer on it.

    10) Favorite place to watch a Husker game? (section in Memorial, bar, friends house etc.)My house. I get too loud to watch it anywhere else. Unless I can get to Memorial. Nothing beats that. The first time I walked out from under the stands and saw the field stretched out in front of me, I honestly thought to myself: This is what heaven looks like.

    11) Favorite all time player? Grant Wistrom

    12) WCO or Option? Option

    13) Stevie Pederson or Billy Byrne? Billy Byrne

    14) Lil Red or Herbie Husker? Herbie

    15) Favorite Husker play? Gotta be the Hail Mary off-the-foot catch. Although I just like watching our guys knock people down. Offense, defense, doesn't matter -- just that feeling when I know we OWN the other team.

    16) Favorite game-day beverage? Bud Light

    17) How did you find HuskerBoard? (referral source)
    Was wandering around the internet during the Callahan debacle, looking for information, rumors, like-minded folk and I found HuskerBoard.
