I was at the very first game the tunnel walk was used, UCLA Sept. 17, 1994. That was the first season with the replay screens and the tunnel walk.Me too. Gameday crew was there, and I remember the student section calling out Corso and Herbstreit on the sidelines until they came over and acknowledged the section (to much cheering). I thought for sure Tommie was going to win the Heisman after that game... then the blood clot.Maybe you're thinking of Craig James? Herbstreit didn't start on GameDay until '96.Craig James got the nickname of Mayor of O Street after he partied in Lincoln after the 1994 NU-CU game.Fact, Craig James killed his first hooker that night.

I saw Sean McDonough on O Street after the BYU game last year. It was like 3:30am, and there was a mini "riot" breaking out. I was the only white person I could see anywhere, until all the sudden I spot McDonough walking towards me heading the opposite direction in khaki cargo shorts and a big polo. He just gave me a sheepish little grin and nod as he walked by. Really weird. I saw him with Davidson at gate 25 maybe that night, I don't remeber exactly. I think Sean likes to have a good time.Who's Davidson? Idk some baseball player my phone auto corrected to. I know there's no D, I don't say it. Yeah, I'm a big jerk about those things. I should stop.

There for FOOTBALL only guy - This guy is the opposite of teachercd. He has a parking pass to an awesome lot right across from the stadium, but has no interest in tailgating or hanging out with friends before the game. He drives into Lincoln to get to campus about 30 minutes before the game. He parks his car, and heads directly to the stadium. He is there for just the game.

Price Complainer Guy - He parks 2 miles away because he won't pay over $10 for a parking spot. He can't handle paying $5 for a beer at Embassy Suites. Flips out when a Pepsi costs $4 in the stadium. Won't buy his son a program because it's $5. Not only is this guy cheap, but he will tell everyone around how much things cost on game days.

Adding another one for you tailgaters. Craft-beer guy/Home brewer - while you are pounding your Bud Lights and smashing the can on your forehead, he has a couple growlers (one IPA, one Stout) from Lazlo's on ice, as well as a homemade Hefeweisen that he brewed a couple weeks ago. He chooses quality over quantity, and loves to discuss the finer points of the beers.

They want the good old days where they can hit the local watering hole or three, call the production assistant to drive them back to their hotel, and then fly back home the next day. Of course, it won't be too long before most college games are announced by a crew in a studio, and not actually at the game. why can't they? I mean I don't think people are going to hate on someone for going to a bar after a football game? Yes, but if the announcer has 1 or 2 too many, there are going to be people who will blast it out on the interweb for all to see. There is no privacy anymore.

Geez, I don't think you are getting the point of the list. It's supposed to be fun. Maybe you can see if you can find some of these "people" at the games this week and enjoy a laugh about it.

That would be really cool. Husker Vision could show something like "Sam says 'Nice Punt!!!'" or something corny like that.

I have seen it where it has been declined, and I have seen it where commentators/officials say it can't be declined.

What would actually happen if Fresno declines the DOG penalty? Would we line up again to punt it again? It's a little confusing to me because I think of all the times teams take a DOG penalty on purpose to give their punter more room to work with - couldn't the opposing coach just decline that penalty again and again? NU wouldn't keep taking the DOG penalty over and over again. They do it once as a gesture, and the Fresno State coaches may decline it, understanding the situation. Riley and the Fresno coach may even discuss it before the game. Right - I guess what I'm asking is, if we took the DOG penalty and DeRuyter declines, would the protocol be for us to line up to punt again from the same yard line? Yes, NU would just punt from the original line of scrimmage, since the penalty was declined. I think you are making this too complicated.

Your 2nd person is my mom. She kept the season tickets going after my dad passed away in 2000 (my oldest brother goes with her). She's super frail and she treks up to the East Balcony, although she now has access to an elevator. Every Sunday I expect to hear the worst, expecting something has happened to her during the game. This may be the last year she is able to go to the games, and we will do our best to keep her season tickets, as she doesn't have to pay a donation for her tickets.

I would like to not have to face this situation until the Wyoming game!!!

The cars and country club memberships were holdovers from the old days when the head coaches weren't making CEO salaries. Plus, I am sure it wasn't a big deal for a car dealership to give the coach use of a vehicle so they can say "Hey, we sold Devaney that Cadillac you always see him, as he drives through campus." For those who are wondering, yes, Devaney would drive through campus on the big student walk ways, because he didn't want to deal with Lincoln's crappy road system as he was trying to get to his office in the South Stadium complex. you mean in the days they were making 6 figures instead of 7, in which due to inflation, is really no different anyway? Poor folks. I really feel for them. A $3 million salary in 2016 is not the equivalent of $23,000 in 1972, which was Tom Osborne's salary as head coach of Nebraska. I know there is inflation, but it hasn't been 11.7%, which is what you are implying. http://journalstar.com/sports/huskers/football/timeline-tom-osborne/article_28a0e520-48f1-5d18-991c-00fef0dec26a.html

While I think it would be cool if the team did some type of tribute, I think Riley and Reach approaches it business as usual.

I don't get those who don't wear red to the games, either. GBR!!!

Hey now! ha The football throwing guys at the tailgate spots bother me...we get it...you are lame at throwing and your buddy is lame at catching and no, it is not okay that the ball keeps hitting us and our drinks. Come on dudes, we are trying to get a pick up game going!!! Two-hand touch below the waist.

You don't like taking a Wilson to the head while you are trying to drink your beer?

Looks really good. I should have my wife to an egg-wash on her runzas. (Insert joke here.)
