[QUOTE="Deleted member 10005, post: 1227004"] I remember as a freshman, being too poor to buy student tickets, we would watch the games in the living room and sprint outside to hear the "cannon" fire whenever we scored (a practice they stopped and replaced with the bell after Sept 11). After that I had season tickets every year. For Block we would go to a bar to pre-game and then head to the stadium. Our block was always on the south endzone line on the east side of the stadium. I remember when #2 Ohio State came to our house on Nov 2, 2002 for a night game. We took them to OT and it was the loudest I've ever heard the stadium. Had there been instant replay, the outcome of that game may have been different. Walter Young caught a TD in OT but was ruled out of bounds. It was right in front of me, he caught the ball! Ohio State went on to win the NC that year [/QUOTE]
