My random ass fandom
With me showing up to Byrd SECU Stadium this weekend to watch our DAWGS play (the 4th quarter), I realized just how random the stadiums I've seen the Huskies play in are, besides Husky Stadium of course.
Qualcomm/Jack Murphy Stadium (RIP) for the 99 Holiday Bowl
Michigan Stadium
SHI Stadium (Rutgers, who knows what it was named in 18?)
The Georgia Dome
The Mercedes Benz Dome
The Superdome
NRG Stadium (fuck you DeBoer)
Beaver Stadium
SECU Stadium
No Pac-12 road games or games in whatever the Seahawks call their stadium. No Rose, Fiesta or west coast bowl games. 6 games which were the only one we've ever played at the facility and 2 stadiums which don't exist anymore.
I guess this is the east coast lyfe as a DWAG fan. CSB

Autzen in 2002 to smoke weed and talk shit with @RaceBannon and Stan Empertmen. My only Pac road game.
4 or 5 games in the Clink in 2012 (that place is twash as fuck)
2016 Peach Bowl in the Old Georgia Dome
2018 Season Rose Bowl (Jan 1 2019)
-
Every UW road game I've attended has been a loss.
- Autzen once. One of the Sark-era "it was close at halftime games." I had to refresh myself on the year and found some real gems for quotes from that one:
- "In the first half, when we were fresh and they were fresh, we outplayed them. But they wore us down." - Steve Sarkisian
- "A loss is a loss, but even though w didn't get the win I guarantee they respected us." - Chris Polk
- "Their fans were actually complimenting us on playing a great game." - Cort Dennison
- NRG for the natty. Shitty stadium and a shitty game in a shitty city.
- Martin Stadium. Loss to Cuog. I recall Craig Chambers having another big game after he broke out bs Cal and thinking he was the next star WR. Thanks, Ty!
- Tempe to watch Sark get blown out. This was also the day when I found out from an actual media source that USC was going to hire Sarkisian (which happened maybe 6 weeks later).

- USC / Coliseum - Multiple. I was barking for sark. Mostly thanking kiffin for not running the ball. Saw a lot of losses there.
- Utah - 2-0
- Rose Bowl - 0-3 (one to Ohio State - should have given MMFG the ball more) (also phantom holding call on touchdown throw to String?)
- Cal '16 (John Ross is gonna score)
- ASU - witnessed possibly the last Sun Devil voodoo game in '22
- CU '17 - Shitty raining Boulder, but pick 6 and great touchdown catch by one of the super skinny WR of the period
- Rutgers '17 - Got into it a little with a Long Island goon about wearing my dawg hat in the 9/11 museum. I Warriors to Orphans him and kept wearing my hat.
- Indiana '24 - One of maybe 81 Dwags there.
- BYU '97 - Rashaan Sheehee for Heisman
- Boise State - Petersen's return. Dante PR Touchdown #1

NOC about the froogs, Pal!!

bleachanus and wilder Nrg/Houston takes are 💯% accurate.
Hated the stadium, hated Houston, and debonner can play in traffic for making my $5k ginger and me experience rather forgettable.
-
Only added it to add in the incremental stadiums
Go back to your peter puffer row boat shit
-
Only thing I'll say about Houston is that my family has a place on the Gulf about an hour South of NRG so it made the trip very doable for a number of reasons …
That said, every statement about Houston on the whole is 100% accurate
Fucking shit city
Fucking shit traffic
Stadium is a full blown meh
The weather the day of the game was bi-polar as fuck
