Introduce Yourself

1) How long have you been a member of Husker Nation?

Since my dad turned me on to football when I was 5 (1959)

2) What/who led you to The Nation?

My dad took me to a home game. I don't remember who the Huskers were playing.

3) Where are you from originally?

Born in Omaha. Raised in Lincoln.

4) Where do you live now?

Lincoln

5) Favorite Husker memory?

So many to choose from. Rogers' punt return vs. Oklahoma probably.

6) Worst Husker memory?

Last year's (2004) "game" at Texas Tech. I'm very worried about the 2005 game.

7) Number of home games attended?

No idea. I've never had season tickets so maybe 100 or so.

8) Number of away games attended?

2, one in Hawaii and one at Minnesota

9) Favorite Husker memorabilia/apparel?

I used to have a football signed by the coaches and players of the 1971 National Championship team, but I sold it so I could attend my daughter's wedding in Minnesota.

10) Favorite place to watch a Husker game? (section in Memorial, bar, friends house etc.)

Hmm, probably Memorial Stadium, but an intimate bar setting or a friend's house would be a close second.

11) Favorite all time player?

So many to choose from. I'd have to go with Johnny "The Jet" Rogers though. I can't remember a player that so brought everyone's attention to the game whenever they touched the ball.

12) WCO or Option?

So far, the option, but we can dream.

13) Stevie Pederson or Billy Byrne?

That's like asking which I like better, getting kicked or beaten.

14) Lil Red or Herbie Husker?

No brainer. Herbie Husker. I can't stand that stupid balloon. I mean come on; he can't even clap!

15) Favorite Husker play?

A perfectly executed option, although I haven't seen one of those in years.

16) Favorite game-day beverage?

Miller Lite - take a drink every time they show Callahan.

17) How did you find HuskerBoard? (referral source)

I think I Googled "Huskers" but I honestly don't remember.

GBR BABY!!! :horns2

 
1) How long have you been a member of Husker Nation?

25 years 295 days (does time in the womb count?)

2) What/who led you to The Nation?

Family

3) Where are you from originally?

Lincoln, NE and damn proud of it.

4) Where do you live now?

Denver, CO and <_< I like the mountains...

5) Favorite Husker memory?

touring the stadium, locker room, weight room, etc. in Cub Scouts. Met Kevin Raymaker and Dr. Tom and got to play on the field.

6) Worst Husker memory?

Colorado 2001

7) Number of home games attended?

I think somewhere around 10. A lot of them were as a young 'un. More to come...

8) Number of away games attended?

Five so far. Two in Iowa and three in Colorado

9) Favorite Husker memorabilia/apparel?

My "Huskers" tattoo... :horns2

10) Favorite place to watch a Husker game? (section in Memorial, bar, friends house etc.)

Bar none; Memorial Stadium. Apart from that... my house. I've found I scream more lately than in times past...

11) Favorite all time player?

Tough one... I'd have to go with Frazier or Rozier.

12) WCO or Option?

I really miss the Option but I'm willing to give the WC a try for a little while...

13) Stevie Pederson or Billy Byrne?

Don't know much about Byrne, but not a big fan of Pederson. I was at the last game vs the Buffs at Lincoln, when Pederson was announced the crowd booed. I had never heard that in Memorial before, that solidified my opinion on the matter.

14) Lil Red or Herbie Husker?

Hands down. Herbie is and always shall be...

15) Favorite Husker play?

Frazier's run through the Florida defense in the third quarter of the '96 Fiesta Bowl or Cory Schlesinger's first TD against Miami in the '95 Orange Bowl

16) Favorite game-day beverage?

Killians "Red"

I love walking around in Denver (even more in Boulder) with all my Husker finery on, getting those looks but knowing they wont say anything. I can't wait for the Huskers to come up here again and smack around the Buffs; I always have so much fun when that happens! Of course, it's not quite as fun when we lose... But it's always worth it.
