1) How long have you been a member of Husker Nation?

Since the early 80s. Got really serious when I moved to Kansas City for a while.

 

2) What/who led you to The Nation?

I've never not been here.

 

3) Where are you from originally?

Beatrice area.

 

4) Where do you live now?

In Omaha

 

5) Favorite Husker memory?

Gassing Miami in the 4th quarter to win. Watched the game with other Husker fans in KC when we lived there.

 

6) Worst Husker memory?

The Brook Berringer crash. I think he would have made a great coach.

 

7) Number of home games attended?

30-40

 

8) Number of away games attended?

2

 

9) Favorite Husker memorabilia/apparel?

Husker Illustrated magazines from the championship seasons. The only good way to get info prior to the internet taking off. I also ordered the Sunday OWH and had it delivered to KC.

 

10) Favorite place to watch a Husker game? (section in Memorial, bar, friends house etc.)

At home on the HD TV.

 

11) Favorite all time player?

Tossup between Kenny Walker and Toniu Fonoti. Walker being deaf probably gets the nod. Fonoti was a man among boys and would have multiple pancake blocks on a single play.

 

12) WCO or Option?

Depends on the down and distance and who is calling the plays. A mobile quarterback that can throw accurately and deliver a hit on a safety would create an unstoppable WCOption offense.

 

13) Stevie Pederson or Billy Byrne?

$Bill by a nose. Not much difference really. Both got/kept the AD in the black. Byrne moved and cut down the student football section to the point were the University students lose out on the opportunity to build some lasting University memories. Give the students the lower section from the 50 to the 10 on the east side like the old days and nurture your future boosters.

 

14) Lil Red or Herbie Husker?

Lil Red. I never cared much for Herbie. Not a big deal either way because I'm normally looking at the cheerleaders.

 

15) Favorite Husker play?

The one that gets us in the endzone.

 

16) Favorite game-day beverage?

Summer Comfort (100 proof Southern Comfort and Lemonade)

 

17) How did you find HuskerBoard? (referral source)

Searching the net.
