It's Black Friday week, so I thought sharing stories about our interaction with Nebraska fans may be appropriate. The tenacity of their delusion is always remarkable.
Ok, so I move to Los Angeles and my neighbor in the apartment next to me is my age (24 at the time) and from Nebraska. This was the mid 80s and Iowa Football was really finding their footing under Hayden Fry as we all know.
So, on rivalry weekend, he invites me to a football party with a group of Nebraska people. I immediately had reservations, but since I didn't really know anyone in LA...I thought...ok, maybe there will be women there. I did, however, ask if there will be other games on and if they had two TVs, so I wouldn't be stuck watching Nebraska / Oklahoma the entire time. Oh, he assures me there will be 3-4 TVs going with all the games and this is the way they do it.
To make a long story short...they have two TVs, side by side in one room...and one TV in another room. Well the one TV room was full of red wearing idiots, so I go to the other room with the two TVs and we are watching Auburn -Alabama & Michigan - Ohio State, when the Nebraska game comes on. Then they all started complaining about wanting Nebraska on both TVs. I'm like saying, why the hell would you want that...just watch the one with Nebraska on it. So I about get in a fight with some Nebraska douche who insisted the second TV was distracting if it wasn't on Nebraska.
Idiots...and it was all dudes at the party. Lose / Lose. Now that I think about it, it may have been some type of Gay Nebraska Football party. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
