BigRedBuster Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 I am pretty sure there are a lot of Husker fans in that part of the country. But, quite a few kids from there do go to Wyoming to school. So, I'm sure there is some of that too. There's also maybe a decent sized group that doesn't give a crap about college football.

knapplc Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 I haven't found that location plays a role in how diehard a fan is. There are a lot of Nebraska expats around the country that are as avid as anyone living in Lincoln. 3 Quote Link to comment
EngineeringHusker Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 One thing I love about Nebraska is that no matter where you're at in the state, you can always find some husker pride. It doesn't matter if you go the farthest corners- Haigler, Falls City, Harrison, or South Sioux City. I've seen husker signs outside houses and people wearing husker hats in all of them. Not sure I've been another place that matches the enthusiasm- even SEC country. 2 Quote Link to comment
jager Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 I only lived in Nebraska near Lincoln for four years in the 80s and have been a Husker fan since. Go back to visit school friends or game once in awhile. But everywhere I go, if I have Husker gear on, I find fans, even in other countries. 3 Quote Link to comment
ZRod Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 It's the same across the state. My dad grew up near Scottsbluff. We visited family there regularly and it's the same passion as it is on the Eastside of the state. Even the ones that move to Denver still root for Big Red. You can find a surprising amount of Husker fans in Colorado. Quote Link to comment
Nebfanatic Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 Being from Chadron I'm an Eagles fan first(kidding, though I do love CSC). In all seriousness, lived in Scottsbluff as well and its Nebraska all the way in those parts. Had one friend who was a Buffs fan and he was ridiculed endlessly. He cried at recess one day in middle school because there was like 6 kids raggin on him for being a Colorado fan. I don't condone bullying but I can't say I feel bad about it 1 2 Quote Link to comment

Hilltop Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 I watched the Michigan State game in a bar in Western Nebraska. I honestly felt like the atmosphere, and the attitude, was better. I can't speak for all the residents out there but can confidently say they were very die hard Husker fans. It was almost like stepping back in time 25 years- had a great time. 2 Quote Link to comment
