    We were there in 2006 for the heartbreaker. We went back in 2007 when some MU fans started talking smack at breakfast. I told them they had no idea what was coming at them down the tracks at them this year and all I got was sneers. Wish we had seen them at dinner.

    I was at this game, I remember the upper deck (pretty much all NDSU fans) giving the team a standing ovation and cheering at the end of the game, for what we thought was a well fought game. Now we would be pissed for losing to them... LOL

    I also remember listening to KFAN on the morning of the 2007 game. They were broadcasting somewhere from downtown. One of the announcers said "There is so much green and gold, you think the Packers are in town".

    Gopher fans were awesome in 2006, gracious and kind. That sure changed in 2007. I don't know if they expected an apology for winning in 2007, but they sure couldn't handle that loss. You would think they'd be good at losing.

    A lot of the season ticket holders sitting around us were a little owly. Of course a buddy of mine kept turning around and telling them to "stand up and cheer for your team, they're not good" and asking them "where can we get an application to the Big 10". That may have had something to do with their owliness. He has since quit drinking and is not nearly as entertaining.

    LOL. Don't hear "owly" much out here in Colorado.

    Also, hardly anyone pronounces the "r" in "ornery". They say "awn-ry"...

    That outcome is what started my insane hatred for the Gophers and their fans- I get banter and even disliking other teams and all, but after the game 3 buddies and I we were walking to Grumpy's on Washington and a bus full of Gophers fans were screaming out the window at us all the same stereotypical big school/small school, "you're from ND" type crap you hear- but the second we said "scoreboard." and the bus stopped, about 25 fans got off the bus and surrounded us to fight. Since then, that program can burn for all I care.
    PS: we won the fight....
