That was embarrassing.

How about the "dance cam" right after Oregon scored to put the game out of reach. "Hey fans, let's see your best dance moves". The guy behind me said "Fuck you, I'mnot dancing. We just got our butts kicked again"

The macklemore song, mediocre football program, and harry the husky with the trumpet makes me not want to go to home games anymore.

were there any tales from the bleachers where some long standing fan told the story of when he first started to bleed black?

My vision is not very good and I'm color blind (Hi Gordo & Grandpa Sankey)...
When the the teams came out on the field I was confused for a few seconds as to which team was which. -
I'll get a bit weird here I know, but that is how I feel.DerekJohnson said:there are just things that are out of touch with reality. Small but poignant example... Moments after Oregon scored a TD to extend its lead to 38-24, there was a break in the action. The crowd was noticably deflated from the setback. Suddenly they start blasting techno music and the PA guy exhorts the crowd to "get up and show us your dance moves!!11!!"
I was like, who is overseeing this three ring circus? Get the fuck outta here!
Around that same time they play the Rocky clip about how life is about getting back on your feet after getting the shit kicked out of you, followed by th Rudy scene of "NOBODY pushes us around in our house. NOBODY!"
At which point I turned to my dad and said, "Says the team that has allowed 31 points and over 500 yards through 3 quarters of football."
While we were still in the old stadium watching attendance decline as the winning changed to losing and we had to sit on our infamous Husky arrogance far too often in silence. Management of football Saturdays at Montlake became noticeably more and more nonchalant and incompetent and the atmosphere went from Husky Fever to What-the-Fuck.
It was to a degree all about taking football out of Husky Football and that degree always depended on the importance of winning and that old Husky competitiveness to each of us bothering to still pay attention.
The Husky marching band not only was never the same after Bill Bissell retired, but nobody early seemed to care anymore probably still don't. Halftimes have become carnival and food circus in The Zone.
I hated the Husky Tron, it's noise and commercialism trying to put me on a couch in front of a TV when all I wanted was to warch football live out-of-doors. Speaking personally, I will not be shocked by the irritation bound to be considerably larger for the scoreboard with it's monster screen.
The new stadium is swell especially knowing that it has been downsized as it I suppose it must be to reflect some aspect of a de-emphasized Husky Football program. With my ancient mind, I can't figure out if I actually heard the new PA guy announce repeatedly: "And that's another Husky first down!" It's weird, but I swear I've heard that refrain someplace....... just not sure where.

At one break they played led zeppelin the whole time. I'm a zeppelin fan for sure, but what the fuck? It was the full song "rock and roll". It's probably close to 4 minutes long. The band sat on their asses the whole time as did the fans. Who is running that god damn monkey show?
And lose macklamore at the end of the third quarter. No one is getting into and macklamore is getting fucked out already. -
I used to make fun of the alumni band as a bunch of loosers trying to hold on to their band glory days and wearing their purple windbreakers to get free seats behind the west end zone.
Then a few years ago I realized I like them more than the real band. They play Husky Fever and Tequilla and just seem to care about what they remember Husky football being. I noticed it again Saturday.
The highlight of Dr J Brad's UW tenure is still dotting the I during the Friday warumup for the OSU band in 2003. And our mascot is a raccoon. -
I can't stand it when the university uses every commercial break to congratulate some random fucktard or give a bullshit award to some cocksucker that the university claimed did X, Y, and Z.
The people you're handing these awards to couldn't give a monkey's fuck about the football team, but they're more than happy that they get the platform of 70,000 doogs giving them courtesy applause so they can go home at night and jerk themselves to sleep. -
