A shout out to the Golden Gophers. I have been going to Penn state games for years and Minnesota fans are by far the best fans that visit PSU. We ran into two gentlemen from Minny who were walking the wrong way to the stadium and needed help finding it. Those two men were excellent people and we shared great stories in our 25 min walk. Also at the weekly pep rally, the Minnesota fans inside the Bryce Jordan Center were rocking right along with the rest of us to which the Blue Band rewarded them, to their delight, by playing the Minnesota Rouser. Pretty Cool!!!
Unfortunately for those Minnesota fans who were hoping for the real Beaver Stadium experience, they did not get it. Many fans were unable to attend because many of us were told that 22,000 parking spaces would not be unavailable for the game. Plus students from other Penn state campuses were unable to come because the university dedicated their busses to shuttling people from remote locations to beaver stadium, leaving the student section unfilled. Despite all the set-backs however, it was nice to see the many who were able to make it.
Once again great fans. Minnesota fans are allways welcome back to Pennsylvania any time. Best of luck, enjoy that beautiful TCF stadium, and c u next year.
Go State, Beat Michigan
