I had a chance to go there again this year on Saturday, October 5, 2013. It was the opening day of the Big Ten Conference.
It was fun to get back in the 'Hoosier' groove again. Hooo-Hooo-Hoosiers could be heard from the Stadium and I'm sure for blocks away from The Rock. The Marching Hundred band were awesome, like always.
The scoreboard was amazing to watch. The 'Kiss Cam' got some interesting people to give their loved one a smooch.
The most exciting thing that happened was the IU Hoosiers defeated the Penn State Nittany Lions for the first time in sixteen tries by a score of 44-24. Actually, they spanked them!
Even though it was a rainy day, it was worth the 1 1/2 hour drive to Bloomington and well worth the five hours we sat on the cold aluminum bleachers.
I can still hear the announcer saying, "It's third down, let's make some noise!" Or my favorite was, "First down Hoooooosiers!"
Can't wait to go back!
