Was the last time I set foot in Husky Stadium. Took Lil' Piss 1.0 to see the 2019 Apple Cup.

Still got a ways to go to catch @RaceBannon 's record. What's it at - like 15 years?

I'm getting close to 20 years since going to Husky stadium for a game. Been to some road games + the Peach Bowel, and 1 practice in Husky stadium in the past decade, but no gaymes.

No. But might be WTE for the Beavers.

That was my last game too, Yella.

I don’t know if I’ll ever be back there, but if that was the last tim that AC was a good note to end on.

I think I hit like 98% of our home games from 2009- 19. It was a good run with a lot of shitty games (and a few great ones).

I probably would have let Jenn keep taking my money, if I still lived in Seattle. But man, if you add a Covid Season and Jimmy Ball on top of the Tyranny of Distance, the whole damn thing collapsed.

The last time I was there was during owen. Oklahoma and whatever game preceded it or followed it. The plus one may have been a road game but I never flew up for only one game after Aloha Airlines folded (and my free flights ended).

The 2019 Apple Cup was my last game too. I was obscenely intoxicated. Don't really even remember the game. Fell into a bush on the way to the game and broke my favorite sunglasses. Might have puked at my seat. One of my worst ever same day hangovers. We went and saw our buddy in the hospital on our way home, and I drew obscene things on the instruction white bored in his room. I'm not sure I can top that, so I probably shouldn't ever go back.

Went to almost every home game from 89-2004, went to one game in '19. The '19 game was the Oregon pants shitting, I might follow it up with another one next season.

I'm sure Yella thinks this is a personal shot since his disdain for shredding often has me talking smack about his favorite bands, but sharing this as an anniversary post is almost as bad as posting up an announcement that you're leaving the board because it's bad for your brand.

After 28 years of being a season ticket holder at UW, I just can’t anymore. The joy is gone for me. We can raise money to bring in talent and develop them and they can walk away for a better offer. I really hope changes are made. I just can’t support this anymore. Go Dawgs.

This isnt really happening though.

If that were the case, Penix, Rome, and McMillan would all transfer to aTm

I go to 1-2 games a year and for the others I sit my ass on a couch or go to a sports bar. Games are fun to go to, but not 6 games a year fun

Seems like more than a few people haven't been to a live game in a while, which is the point of the post.

2005 home against Beavis for me. It was at least 10 years before I even considered going again after that. It scarred me.

Doubt I'll ever go back to be honest. My den has the best seats in the house plus it has DVR. You guys that go to the games should look into that. You can record the game for about 50 minutes or so before you start watching, then skip every bit of bullshit including half time and then finish the game about the same time that it finishes for real. It's pure wizardry.

I'm a bad fan. I'm barely even a fan, to he quite honest.

Brilliant achievement can't wait for the book. Enjoy that 2D trophy. Any words of inspiration for us aspiring to not go somewhere for a while and make a post about it?

My introduction to Husky stadium was 1990 vs Oregon. I didn't miss another home game until 1993 (except Nebraska which sucked for me but I had a kickass fishing trip that day), so I got spoiled as fuck as a young UW fan.

Lambo put me to sleep and I was too caught up starting a family to see the peak RN games live. I managed a couple of Gilby/TY debacles and just said fuck it. I'm not putting myself through that anymore. It has been hard to get motivated to go back. I'm just too lazy for all that anymore.
