My first game



I was 6 years old. My aunt worked for the school & this was Employee Day, she brought me and my older brother lol.

My last game



I was a fan of Paul Johnson & the triple option offense lol. Georgia Tech defense was trash & Richt/Rosier almost choked this one away. I won a raffle at work for tickets to this game 😂😂😂

1st game was Sophomore year in HS, 2006 vs Florida State 2006 when they beat us 13-10.


Last game attended was 2018 vs FSU, the comeback. That was my 4th UM-FSU game and the first time seeing us win one smh.

First game I went to was against South Carolina at the Orange Bowl in 1987. A brawl ensued and the Gamecocks never wanted to play us again. My last game was last year, Louisville at Hard Rock.

First/Last: Miami vs. Notre Dame 2017.

Basically told my dispatcher a month in advance, they tried to keep me in Wisconsin. Called the senior fleet manager with text messages from the month prior explaining how important it was that I get home on time. Dispatcher had sent text messages that he agreed. Had reciepts every week leading up to that point that I kept reminding my dispatcher I needed to get home on time. Dispatcher responded he understood.

Made it very clear three days before the event that if I wasn't routed home immediately, they were going to have to get their truck towed to the nearest Kenworth because I was going to park it in a parking lot, take an uber to the airport and go home myself.

Had me park it at Thermoking in Madison, WI. Plane had to outrun a snowstorm to get home on time. Got there one day before the game.

I knew it was going to be a big game a month prior. But I had no idea I was going to be in a Top 10 matchup on prime time TV with people hanging off the rafters, partying in the West End Zone.
