[Husker] Redemption

[ioneb1 at tx.rr.com]

I lived in NO & was at that game. A disaster from opening kickoff. That was bad enough but a drunk Ala. person (can't be called a lady) would throw ice on us at every good play along with curse words. Many, many good plays by Ala.. Late in 3rd quarter some one removed her. The worst though, was that the nearby Ala. fans encourged her. The couple I was with still talk about that game (my wife luckily had the flu) & wish Ala. ill ever since.
