Fun thread! 🧡💙 My husband and I met at Illinois in the Fall of 1973. Over the years, as Football Season ticket holders since 1984 and many, many basketball games, including many playoff and tournament games, we have collected an enormous amount of Illini clothing and memorabilia. These pics are just a smidgeon of my favorites:

I don't drink anymore, but I have been saving this bottle of TroubleMaker's Mark with the orange and blue wax for 24 years (since the Bears season in Champaign) to be opened upon our first national championship.

Probably won't bring it with me to Indianapolis, but will instead keep it on hand for deserving/suitably appreciative guests to enjoy out of these old plastic party cups that my parents used back in the '70s and '80s.

*Locals only trivia: I'm fairly confident that Indian Acres Day Camp poached that Chief design for t-shirts in the early '80s.

Re Indian Acres: looks awfully familiar.

Was Indian Acres the one out on 45 with a terrible dredged pond of mud and a one lane dirt access road to get in, or was it the site near the Urbana Fairgrounds? Help me out here.
