Reminds me of the Susan Smith story, the mother that drowned her two kids in 1994 by driving her car into a lake. It was a big story and was on the national TV news program and my five year old daughter would catch the story. It showed up on the cover of Newsweek which I subscribed to pre-internet (cheap at the time if you claimed to be a student subscriber). I was reading the story when my daughter saw the cover and came and sat with me and thought for a while and said, "The mommy didn't even love the baby?"

That happened on the day of the Washington-Stanford game in Palo Alto. I was there in the pouring rain. Huskies lost to Scott Frost 46-28. Napoleon took a handoff on a draw play and had a giant hole to run through ---- but slipped and fell untouched.
The Husky Marching Band got into a scuffle with the Stanford band. One of the Husky musicians tackled the Stanford Tree. Someone sitting right behind me yelled "band faggots!"
