what music gets you pumped for gameday?


Recommended Posts

I love Hell's Bells obviously, but another one is the theme from the "I play for Nebraska" video montage they play before the tunnel walk. it's the music from The Contender, and I can't get enough of it. I listen to it in my car sometimes in anticipation of the upcoming season, thinking about some of the quotes from it last year.

 

"I work out with pain, I practice with pain, I even sleep with pain. And when I hit that field, I feel no pain."--Greg Austin, Nebraska Cornhuskers

 

man i just love the word montage..

 

a ping pong montage.

yep, that'll work for me.

I think I'll take that and play that for this season. I need a new song to make my famous Rotel dip to on game day!

 

 

Is it just me or does everybody have a famous Rotel dip? lmao. I swear I've heard like 15 people in the past year speak of their famous Rotel dip. You make 16 lmao.

hahah, maybe. I'm not sure. I just remember my parents always made their version. And then got superstitious about it when the Huskers had a bad season...blaming it on the dip.

Then a few years back when I made my own version the Huskers won those games that day. Everytime I didn't make it, they lost. So now I continue to make it every time I can.

My recipe:

 

Huge slab of Kraft cheese (I believe the 1lb version)

can of rotel...I prefer "hot" but if other people are eating, I'll go for mild/medium

can of chili

garlic

 

put everything into a big pot and add a bit of garlic. cook on medium/medium high until nice and melted...stirring often so it doesn't burn.

Enjoy with chips!

 

My roomate isn't even a Nebraska fan but he'll sit and watch the games with me as long as I make my Rotel dip :)
