Remember that quite well, and was going to post similarly. At the end of the Big Game, I stood in the north end of the old stadium, stunned. We were going to the Rose Bowl.
And what a great moment that was. I had just landed in Melbourne, Australia and it was Sunday morning there. The front desk clerk at the hotel was kind enough to open up their business center so that I could use their desktop PC to find the KZSU audio feed and listen, live, to Casey’s Run For the Roses.
Ha! I was in Melbourne (or maybe Cairnes) for our win over MSU in the Sun Bowl a few years earlier. No way to listen to it; I just remember opening the newspaper two days later and seeing the box score hidden away deep in the paper. I couldn't believe we had shut out MSU.
