    It was 2007. I scored a pair of 4th row seats for almost nothong, which back then were super fucking far away from the field.

    Anyways it was all shitty and raining. By some miracle Jack Lockner had the Huskies tied with Oregon heading into the 4th quarter. The Ducks realized they were playing a tight game with a super shitty team, tried a little, and won the 4th quarter 24-3. They also set the school record for rushing yards in a game.

    Nov. 10, 2007, Cal-USC, night game, rained the whole time. We all had rain gear, but the water wicked up underneath our coats from us sitting on wet benches, so by halftime we were all absolutely drenched. Cal lost a relatively close game 24-17. BIL, my father and I were there with my wife, and we three guys were all silently waiting for my wife to say she'd had enough, let's go. She never did. Later she said she didn't realize that leaving early was even an option. BIL was at the time an avid smoker, and after the game he couldn't light his deathsticks (they were protected in plastic wrapping) because his matches were too wet, so he was especially miserable.

    Nov. 1, 2008, Cal-Oregon, day game, when the north end of the field was underwater. Absolute monsoon drenching before the game, stopped midway through the second quarter. Cal won 26-16 and Ducks fans complained about their team having to play in water. Fuck those guys.

    2004 San Jose St. It was the only win that year. It wasn't a downpour, but it rained steadily.

    I went with some guy I knew from a message board. Back then I still liked message boards. Nobody else could go, or nobody else wanted to go. I can't fucking remember. I went to an Arizona game later that year with a friend. It was horrible. Arizona really sucked back then (well kind of like now actually) and we couldn't beat them. It was a gray, dreary, awful 50 degree November day that made grunge musicians depressed. I remember seagulls circling the field waiting for old hot dogs and nachos.

    Went to the seahawks packers Sunday night game during the ice storm of 08 (I don't remember what year it was) all the freeways were frozen over after the game and cars slid off the road and were abandoned up and down the freeways. We luckily slid off the road right at a hotel otherwise wed have been sleeping in the car that night
