Johhny the Jet's famous punt return, also the Frost TD at Mizzou that hit the foot and ended a TD and a National Title. I saw it live!

6) Worst Husker memory?

No doubt, the loss to Miami in the Orange Bowl 31-30, especially knowing that the two point was there, Turner just threw it too hard and low, instead of out and up so only we would catch it.

8) Number of away games attended?

4-5, those all being at Mizzou when I lived at the Lake of the Ozarks.

It's anywhere with my family, watched a bowl game at a Hooters once and my Mom couldn't figure out why I wasn't interested in the scenery. Go figure!

Roger Craig, Rogers, Mike Rozier, Irving Fryar, Tommie Frazier, can't choose one.

Urg

So I've been a member of this board for a while and just now got around to this. Sorry it took so long, I guess I'm Offically here now.

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

25 years

2) What/who led you to The Nation?

My dad was from Iowa and his family is all Hawks (football) and Cardinals (baseball) fans, so he followed the Huskers and the Royals to spite them.

3) Where are you from originally?

Lincoln

4) Where do you live now?

Omaha

5) Favorite Husker memory?

It was senior day against Colorado in 2000. I was there with my bro Bakhal. We gave up a late touchdown to sCUm and most of the old people who called themselves fans were cursing and lining up to leave. At this point, the spirit of Husker Nation consumed me, and I started cursing the fair weather B@#$& who were leaving. I stood up on the bench and got into it with everything that I had. Then, we drove down and lined up for the field goal. As soon as Josh hit it, I knew it was good. I ran up to the top of north endzone and got tackled by some excited mo' fo's. I felt so proud to be a husker fan on that day!

6) Worst Husker memory?

We were supposed to get rolled by Texas by Choirboy Simms and his band of fools in 2002. We looked like we had lost midway through the fourth. Bakhal and I were fully intent on riding it out, and we chose to go down underneath to watch the rest of the game. Then, we got a stop on D, and Groce brought the ball back to like the 11. We could have tied with a FG, but Solich called a square out and LeFlore ran the wrong route. Vasher picked the ball off literally right in front of me. I couldn't speak all the way home. At first I was angry at Jammal, then at Frank. Far removed, I now feel bad for Jammal, who played the game of his life that night. I respect Frank for going for the win. It still hurts, though, to have come all that way, that night, with that mediocre team, and still fall short.

7) Number of home games attended?

30

8) Number of away games attended?

3 (All at sCUm)

9) Favorite Husker memorabilia/apparel?

Still got a "1983 National Football Champions" T-Shirt that my dad brought home from Misty's. He bought it from a guy who was of course banking on a Husker victory that didn't happen.

10) Favorite place to watch a Husker game?

North Endzone, Section 33

11) Favorite all time player?

Ahman Green.

12) WCO or Option?

Both fun to watch when executed

14) Lil Red or Herbie Husker?

HERBIE (Should there even be a question?)

Rumplemintze
