“This is Nebraska football! A tradition filled with passion…loyalty…excellence…accountability…most importantly – family. It’s game day at Nebraska!”
Another field trip. This time with preschoolers. And where do we go? Memorial Stadium in Lincoln – home of the Nebraska Cornhuskers. Another good day to be a bus driver!
Entering Memorial Stadium was quite humbling for me. I’ve lived in Nebraska my entire life but this was the first time I’d been inside the belly of the stadium where the athletes hang out. I was actually walking the same halls that Bob Devaney and Tom Osborne once walked. I’ve only sat in the stadiums twice. I don’t have the opportunity to go to games like some of the other Big Red fans do. Both times I have gone, though, I’ve felt the electricity, the excitement of the game and the pride of being a Nebraskan! During our tour, we were able to view the following movie in a room that surrounded the audience with its visuals and excitement of a game day. It brought tears to my eyes because after all… I AM A HUSKER!
GO BIG RED!!
