I see you Fe! :laugh:

I do like the white out.

Your Orange Bowl this year was one of the most exciting games ever IMHO. (Was rooting for your team over FSU. 👍 )

This is my eighth year exiled in Big 10 TVland. *cries*

The Orange Bowl was a lot of fun. The game was ridiculous, painful to watch at some points but unforgettable to say the least.

I only joke about Nebraska though. We made friends with Nebraska fans at a tailgate when I was a freshman, they were actually really nice 🙂

Well, putting the word "Wisconsin" in the same post as "The very best student section in the country" was totally accurate, but I think your picture was a little misleading.

There, fixed that for you. 😉

JUMP AROUND!!!!

“The institution reconfirmed previously issued structural safety studies for Camp Randall Stadium this week and, as a result, will resume the tradition of playing the song ‘Jump Around’ prior to the start of the fourth quarter,” says Wiley. “Camp Randall Stadium has long been known for its terrific atmosphere and the phenomenon of the ‘Jump Around’ song in the last five to six years has been important to that reputation.”

Wiley adds that although some patrons have felt uneasy about the swaying of the upper deck at Camp Randall when thousands of fans jump during the song, engineers and architects consulted about the deck’s structural soundness remain confident in earlier assessments that the facility can handle the strain created when the crowd responds to the song.

“The amplitude of the motion in the upper deck, while enough to be physically noticeable, is actually very, very small, and far below any risk to the structural integrity of the deck,” Wiley says.

:laugh: lol nice response. Ok ok I have to admit, I love the JUMP AROUND... we even semi-copied it this year with the "Zombie Nation" bounce, but I will be the first to admit that is a nice Wisconsin tradition.

I've heard that if the student section at Beaver Stadium keeps doing it though, it will be a problem 🙁

We have fly-overs for most of the games. One game I got stuck on 3rd deck even though I was a senior (seating going by classification). I could feel the heat from the afterburners.

But don't get me wrong - the games are amazing. I only missed 1 home football game the entire time I was at A&M.

Oh my goodness - are you guys trying to say your stadiums are big?

Largest crowd ever: 87,555 - I was at that game!! Friggin' nuts! Could not breathe we were packed in so tight.

Yeah, I suppose our piddly little 83,069 can't compete.

But I was really talking about quality more so than quantity. 😉

What's the "uh-oh" for? They are yummy. I'm not a huge fan of the pizza, but the breadsticks are so soft and buttery. Am I making you guys hungry yet? :laugh:

Oh numbers.....Beaver Stadium's record crowd was 110,753!! Only 2nd to the big house (which is total crap anyway....I was there; they re-painted the seats so that they could fit more people in and considered it a "renovation," total bs.....you could not breath it was so tight 😡

Heh, evidently you missed the "breaststicks" debacle several hundred pages back. 😉 And unfortunately the search function is down, so you won't be able to find it. But ask oxeye or Nikki about it the next time you see one of them. 😀

You're applying right now, right? Floridian? How are things going?

Oh, I think I caught the end of that discussion a while back. Wasn't it VD saying she was ordering Papa Johns and then all hell broke loose.

I am taking the MCAT next month, but I will not be applying this year. I have decided to wait until next year. It's a long story dealing with financial aid.

Mmmmm, yummy!!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Can't get enough of them buttery breaststicks. Isn't there an alcoholic beverage referring to something very similar? Or maybe that is buttery ni[[le or slippery ni[[le? 😕
