I've been to 4 of our games (FIU, UCLA, Maryland, Nebraska). In the latter 3 games, I've had moments I had to wipe some tears from my eyes. Especially at UCLA and vs Nebraska. At UCLA, just the significance of getting to see my Hoosiers play in that historic stadium and they went out and dominated while feeling the presence of so many IU fans. And Nebraska, the whole scene, the crowd, the way the game went. I kept turning around to see how full the stands were, and it wasn't an Ohio State game so I knew those were our fans for the most part. This season could end up rivaling seeing my Cubs win a World Series, and that is freaking crazy. One game at a time, of course. I'll be there bright and early on Saturday, I know that. As a life long Cubs fan that grew up 4 blocks from Wrigley ..... 🍻 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That had to be awesome. I'm as huge a sports fan as one could be, but all my teams are an hour plus away. I never really get to have the full experience that proximity provides.

Yeah, as a kid I would go to Waveland Avenue and try to catch home run balls during batting practice. Took my glove day after day, just to get mowed down by the older kids. Never did get one, but it wasn't for lack of effort! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artesian_86 Posted 15 hours ago Report Share Posted 15 hours ago My wife and I were just given 2 free tix to the game this Saturday. This is the first year we have not had season tickets and a parking pass. We have always tailgated at Gate 11. What's it going to cost me to park at the church across from Gate 11? I plan on getting there extra, extra early to ensure a spot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
