Roundball Shaman Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 A week without a game for the boys is good time to think about the Halloween season. The time of scary and weird and unusual and out-of-the-ordinary stuff, or so the keepers of the yearly calendar tell us. This time of year brings questions, including for the Huskers and fans. Think about Husker football and the scary season. No, I don’t mean some of the lopsided losses in the recent history books. Other stuff. Has anything scary or weird or unusual or out-of-the-ordinary or strange ever happened to you relating to the Huskers? This can be something during a Husker game itself, in the stands, before or after a game, or something else. Or, if you yourself didn’t experience it, did something weird happen to a friend or family member relating to the Huskers... Strange things during the football season, odd occurrences, premonitions, events, plays on the field, traveling to or from a game... Quote Link to comment

That night Memorial Stadium was hostile and awesome. Runner up of course is the epic volleyball picture 2 Quote Link to comment
Roundball Shaman Posted October 19, 2019 Author Share Posted October 19, 2019 Freaky things are starting up. The Fighting Illini of Illinois - who haven't done much fighting for quite a while - have just taken down Wisconsin. The Number Six team in the nation was just beaten by the Rising Illini. Scary for the Madisonites, freaky fun in Champaign. No ghosts have been reported yet in the area. But the chances for Wisconsin to get to the CFB big four table have now vanished in the grey haze of an autumn gloomy and foggy Wisconsin morning. Darkness and doom has descended upon the lands north of Illinois. But, at least they'll always have cheese. Quote Link to comment

Roundball Shaman Posted October 20, 2019 Author Share Posted October 20, 2019 December 5, 2009. To borrow a phrase, “A day that will live in infamy”. The so-called Big 12 Championship Game. More like, the “What Do We Have To Do To Make Sure Texas Wins” Big 12 Championship Game. This is one of the scariest days ever in Husker history when weird spirits were let loose from the depths of Arlington, Texas upon Husker Nation and have been running about ever since. Neither the Huskers nor Texas have ever fully recovered from that ghostly day. You know the story. Huskers were on their way to winning the title. Game clock goes to zero. Huskers Win! Uh... Wait a moment - No they don’t! The Magic One Second is put back on the clock, and Texas is allowed to make a game-winning (so-called) field goal. Huskers lose 13 to 12. Whether you think it was right to put that second back on the clock or not, things have been weird and “off” with both of these programs ever since. Something in the universe got out of balance and has not yet been set right. Halloween did not happen on October 31st that year. It happened on December 5, and has replayed itself many times on many Saturdays since for two former Blueblood programs desperate to reclaim the high ground again. Quote Link to comment
UniversalMartin Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 I was once confronted with a situation in which I thought I was going to get into it with my boyhood idol Tommie Frazier cause he was being a douche to my dad at a bar in Seattle before the 2010 UW game. Quote Link to comment
