What a game! In my mind I can still hear Kent Pavelka (yes, I know he's not announcing Husker football anymore) yelling "Touchdown, Touchdown, Touchdown!" I am usually not one to get into football games because I think it's silly to get that emotionally involved in something that is supposed to be considered a game. That train of thought was slightly altered this year as one of my sons participated in football, HOWEVER, I adamently refuse--or thought I did--to get emotionally charged up for a game that is on television. I even went so far as to ignore most of the first half of the game in spite of the tingles that began as we drove down "O" Street passed all the Husker Fans heading for the game. Just moments before this, our oldest son and his uncle made the decision to exchange watching the game on TV for taking it in from the bleachers at Memorial Stadium. At almost the last possible moment, they hopped into Grandma B's car and headed for the shuttle to try and get some tickets. They got the tickets and the rest is history. It was an exciting game and was rehashed from every direction at Grandma B's house later that night.
