Friday 7/11 on ESPNU, 5:30am on my dish which means I don’t know what for you Comcast subscribers. (Anywhere from 2:30am to 8:30am?) Check your local listings.
I can’t wait to have this game saved forever on my DVR. The first Jake Locker game! Syracuse really looked like the JV in this one, and then they later went on to upset Louisville @ Papa John’s. And nobody just waltzes into Papa John’s. Look: I even wrote a preview post about this game. It’s a real time capsule featuring Beef championing the candidacy of Mitt Romney.

As I recall, the Romney endorsement was made in jest. However, this is the only Husky I’ve seen live in probably 5 Years. We won. So chicken strips and Romney are henceforth to be incorperated into my Husky Football pregame ritual from now until time immemorial.

I knew we shouldn’t have sent him to Mormon camp that one summer, but hey, a win is a win.
“with little to slight variation” and as inexplicable as it sounds, I see the alcohol policy as an inverse function of victory. The more the team wins, the less necessary it becomes to consume copious amounts of booze as the gameday experience is more enjoyable and and of itself.
I too champion such a concept. Unfortunately, this peaked in week 2 of 2007 Husky football. I shall be in eugene to see the team to fruition this August 30, where the football gods will smite our feathered fiends and bring order to the galaxy.
The boozing factor remains pertinent even as the team once again becomes more and more successful. For Fox and others, who sadly did not have the pleasure of being in the house for the last Rose Bowl season, the drinking only hightened the sense of euforia that came with each win.
It also brought about things like the Thunder Stick Chew Spit Bombs, people getting kicked out of games and falling asleep in the middle of campus and attending games in our Pledge Dance tuxes.
Drink on, gentlemen. Drink on.
An important ingredient in the Thunder Stick Chew Spit Bombs was urine….tell me how you could create enough urine to fill a Thunder Stick without drinking boozing.
