Was called in the home game against Ohio State in 87. Just made the crowd louder.


I was at that game. Earl Bruce (frickeye coach) poured gas on the fire from the beginning by refusing to bring his team out of the tunnel first.
Their QB (Tom Tupa) screwed up bigtime on the first series by trying to "shush" the crowd. BIG MISTAKE. I know the refs warned us a couple times, don't remember if actually penalized. I do know the refs finally told Tupa to just "snap the damn ball!!!"

The fight with Andelsok and Chris Spielman was pretty bad arse. I was 16 at the time and remember that game as when I really started paying attention to football. Still sit in the same seats 35 years later.

I could be wrong but I think our fans got back to back flags during the same series

I was in the student section at that game. Was that the one where Tupa (QB) caught a pass in the end zone ?
