ladyhawke Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 A hearty thumbs up and thank you to all of the many Husker fans we met and experienced while visiting Lincoln this past weekend. A blanket of warmth was evident throughout our visit. At first, it appeared almost a fake sense of welcome.....which soon changed to genuine feelings almost everyone shared. Whether walking around the downtown, eating meals, pre-game or the aftermath of the game itself...you are all to be commended for the welcome you gave to our visiting fans. Your overall knowlege of college football and even knowing a lot of information about the Huskies was evident. Thanks as well to those of you who took the time to respond to my request about ideas for places to go and eat while in Lincoln. I must say Misty's in downtown was a winner! Pricy at around $200 for 3 people, the 16 oz Prime Rib was the Bomb! Lazno's was, in all candor, a bad experience. After getting to the table and ordering, the appetizer, salad and food were all given to us all at once and from ordering to finishing dinner it could have not taken more then 1/2 hour. The food was marginal at best and the service was poor. The Sea of Red was everywhere. The small smattering of Purple around town sure made for an eyesore! Purple and Red certainly are not a good looking mix! Before revisiting the game, I want to apologize for the guy who calls himself "UDub". We (this is me speaking on behalf of all true Husky fans) certainly do not speak for this jerk who does NOT represent who we are as fans. He has ZERO CLASS and I am truely sorry for his negative commentary on your Board. He sounds like he is one very little man who somehow got a computer and has nothing else better to do. A few brief and random things on the game: - The naked bootleg near the end by Martinez was a piece of work. One of the best I have ever seen - No matter what arguement anyone suggests, the 2 blown calls by the referees were horrible calls. Simply terrible calls. The calls DID make a difference in our kids (and Coaches) heads. That said, a football game is +/- 130 total snaps so no huge complaints overall - The Nebraska Tailback Position (if they stay healthy) will be loaded for the next 4 years. They are outstanding talent - Our young QB (Price) might be a good one. Gutsy kid. IMO he should have been relieved by Nick Montana in the 2nd half. He was hurt pretty bad - Good thing the Big Ten is not pass happy. Your Secondary (will change for the better when Dennard gets back) is not a strength - Your O-Line continued to battle as the game went on. They wore our DL out. We did not substitute well and it showed That's enough. I don't want to ramble any more. Thanks again for a awesome weekend. Many....and I mean many...other Washington Husky fans who flew in to watch the game have told me they had very similar feelings about the Hospitality they recieved while in Lincoln from the Husker Fans. I am a Husker Fan from now on. Dare I say...."Hope to see you play the Huskies again this year in the Rose Bowl?" Stranger things have happened! You're very welcome. Thanks for coming. We're always glad when people come to our state and have a good time. (Too bad about Lazlo's-Haven't been there for a long time but they used to have really good ribs?) Your qb is a tough cookie. Hard not to like a kid like that. I hope he gets better soon. I hate seeing those kids get hurt. I don't care which side they're on. Have a great season! Quote Link to comment
