I don't know why people keep complaining about that game.  It was a beautiful game, with Elway leading that amazing come-from-behind score to win with just seconds left in the game.  I've watched that game replayed countless times, and our victory never ceases to bring a smile to my face, right before I turn the TV off with 4 seconds left on the clock.

You should watch to the very end of the game, when Dwight Garner's knee is clearly down with no time left on the clock and the band descends onto the field in celebration.

of course one of the Cal TDs in the Stanford endzone was not a catch.......at least not from our low endzone seats it was not......

That led to several seasons of Stanford fans derisively mimicking a referee's touchdown sign whenever there was an awful call . . . in any sport.  That "tradition" was particularly well-used at Maples (and very amusing).  I swear, it must have lasted 5 years . . . easy.  And only the Stanford fans sitting in that end zone watching that horrific TD call for Da Bears knew what the heck the derisive TD sign by irate fans signified.  God, it was beautiful!

P.S.  IIRC, 76lsjumb (a sometimes poster in these parts) was one of the best practitioners.
