An awesome day

[huskerinacaveman]

I've been a husker fan since the early 90's. Though I was too young to really understand what I was seeing during the championship years, I still remember the game when TO was hoisted on top of the shoulders of the players.

 

I have wanted for years to make the almost 5 hour trip for years, but life always seems to get into the way.

 

But not this weekend my friends!

 

I got to part of the East Stadium card stunt on Saturday, i don't know how many of you guys where there, or got to be on that side holding up the card. But to look through that little eye opening and see what it spelled, and then to see the flashes from all over the stadium was so freaking surreal.

 

All of those flashes represents someone else's evidence of the tribute to a great man Tom Osborn. Though I may not be in any of those pictures with a face, but I was one of several thousands who all made that possible.

 

Those pictures are going to live on for a long time, and my role in all of that will also. For someone else's memories, Tom's and mine.

 

The game was freaking awesome..I still can't talk because I yelled so much and so long. I felt that if I didn't yell, then the one player would hear what he needed to hear to make the play and I was not about to let that happen. Don't care how true or not it was, but it was truly one of the best experiences of my life.

 

I honestly just don't know what else I can put into words about the whole experience.

 

It was everything I ever wanted it to be. Great seats (Section 4, Row 15, Seats 1 and 2) I have already talked to the person I bought my tickets from for future purchases from them if they are unable to go. So If you are close, lemme know and we'll be sure to have some good times in the future.

 

That's all guys, so glad I can share all of this with you.

Good first game to go to! Other than the wimpy flyover, I thought that was one of (if not the best) gameday experience overall I have ever had and I have been to probably 50-60 games and I am only 21.

Glad you got to see some pretty good festivities for your first experience. I make it to 5-6 games a year and am upset I had to miss that one.

Pretty cool to hear you describe the feeling of the TO tribute. Glad you got to be a part.
