[QUOTE="QBC, post: 1938639, member: 749012"] September 13, 1980 at home against Michigan State. My dad played for the Illini in 1960 and 61 and has always been a huge fan. He took my younger brother and I to the game and we spent most of it running up and down the ramps in the towers although we were back in our seats to see the Chief at halftime! The stadium felt very empty with a stated attendance of 46,377. The Illini won the game on a last second field goal by Mike Bass. My dad still goes to as many games as he can - kudos to the Varsity I Association for free tickets for ex-football players - and we will be at the Maryland-Illinois game in College Park this year. Go Illini! [/QUOTE]
