Lets hope this translates into a good fan showing tomorrow

My chest always swells up with pride when I flip on the tv and see that Husker fans have taken over whole sections of another teams stadium.

My cousin lives in Seattle - just got married to a native.

I told him Nebraska would flood Seattle with red people. He didn’t believe me. Heh heh heh heh….

Dear Go Big Rev

Absolutely love your posts! And I got to know much more about you through that survey Corn Nation ran. Blessings to you, and God help the Hawkeyes!

I am currently commuting to Milwaukee from Dallas every week for work. Last night the Seattle flight was boarding across from the Dallas gate. I saw a bunch of Red boarding – I was so envious!!! A co-worker from Milwaukee is going on an Alaskan cruise next week, he texted me that about 1/4 of his flight this morning ro Seattle had people wearing red. The sad thing is I have a place to stay as my brother is stationed in the Seattle area. His in-laws from Norfolk are headed that way. I figured since I am not home much I should come home to my wife.

Makes sense

If you’re a Husker fan in the Pacific Northwest, this is probably your first chance to go to a game somewhat close to home since 1997, right?

Man, I love it when other teams (or, more specifically, their fans) totally underestimate the number of fans Nebraska will bring to their stadium.
