teachercd Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I thought since this got brought up in another thread that we could see why people go to Husker games. Personally I go to party, the atmosphere is usually great, champions club is a blast, talegating is usually average to above average and of course, if its warmer out its great to bring girls with and meet new ones too! I don't usually even go into the game, what about you guys/girls? Quote Link to comment

Bradr Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 While I absolutely love the games and rarely miss more than a minute or two of home games, for me it really has become more of a family and friends event. It really does have a holiday type feel to it when I get to see a bunch of people I am close to, share good food, and be in good company. And while booze is very nice and always present, but I usually eat so much that I have trouble getting especially saucy. Although sauciness does ensue from time to time. So I guess you could say that the game is the event that brings everyone together to party? Both then? Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I party at the tailgate. At the stadium I'm there for the game. PS - OP, you should make a poll out of this. Quote Link to comment
mmmtodd Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 im with knapplc in a way. while i go more often for the tailgating/atmosphere/party...the days i do go in the stadium, im there solely for it. probably average 4 trips a year, 2 actual games. Quote Link to comment

jsneb83 Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 Does waiting in line in the student section for two hours and another 2-3 hours in the stadium count as a party? 1 Quote Link to comment
blackshirts5115 Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 The most fun moments of my life occur in Memorial Stadium. During a Husker game I am more excited and having the most fun, exhilarating time of my life. There is no way I will ever drink before or during a Husker game. For me, drinking is for socializing and I don't socialize at games. I watch the game, scream loudly, and usually have several anxiety attacks. Socializing/partying comes after the game if we win. Drowning myself in my sorrows if we lose. Quote Link to comment
JTrain Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I figure there are 352 days to party and 13 days to watch Husker football. Quote Link to comment
Pedro Guerrero Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I go to a Husker game because I love to watch Husker football. I don’t party or really drink for that matter so those things don’t appeal to me. Football trumps partying in my eyes but that could just be me though. FWIW: I don’t really care for drunk people either so maybe that is why the partying scene and I don’t jive. Different strokes for different folks I guess. I would like to know the age of the people that say they go to “party”. I don’t have anything to say either way I’m just curious. 1 Quote Link to comment
I am I Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I go for the games. Period. I'm 34 and having a few beers or cocktails before the game is legal and is kind of more celebratory than partying per se. When I was younger, it was more partying for me to go to B-ball games in college, as I was playing football on Saturdays. Really drunk, loud, cursing, partying people, no matter how passionate are annoying because they aren't fully attentive. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I'm there to watch the game. Quote Link to comment
Spartness Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 While I enjoy the other festivities, it's the game all-the-way!!! Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I suppose I should qualify the word "party" in my other post. I'm talking about a bunch of grown adults standing around talking football with a beer in their hand. Often we're talking to former players, family, or folks from my hometown that I haven't seen in ages. There is nothing wild about it. It's most definitely not out of control. Quote Link to comment
