OCCC, funny/true story. So Im watching the VAtech game that year at Barney's Beanery here in Hollywood(which is the Canes hangout in LA, some really great, lively Canes crowds show up every week during the season) and as UM starts to pull away in the 3rd/4th quarter, I said to my table: "Im going to the game.''
It was my Ray Kinsella moment in his Iowa cornfield. They built it, and it called for me to come, lol
I saw that electricity there, and it just looked like a scene. They couldn't believe it. I was serious, went home that night, booked my flight and got a ticket. One of the best impulse decisions Ive ever made( and I've made a ton of bad ones)
Even had lunch that game day with Austin Pennigfer(sp) at 'the Big Cheese' lol.
Flew home that next morning, after staying in the airport most of the late night...
