[Husker] Tunnel Walk Follow Up

[Jim J.]

Here's the latest from Lincoln Journal Star:

* Got your ticket? Get to your seat by 2:15 p.m. so you don't miss the debut
of this year's Tunnel Walk. The "Sirius" song by the Alan Parsons Project 
will
still be featured, but music by Lincoln's own Mikey Bo has a part as well.

So something for everyone. Tradition stays with "Sirius" plus a little 
something
extra for those looking for a change.
