My wife and I went with friends, and enjoyed every moment. Beautiful weather, and just a fun time connecting and reliving the moments from Omaha and the great season we had with other Neaver believers of all ages. Even the late start was fun, anticipating the arrival of the Beavs.
People who know me know that I still get a lump in my throat every time I hear our fight song. I was moved by the tributes to everyone involved with our entire program, the depth of affection our players have for each other, and their humility and gratitude. Every one of them is so happy they chose OSU, and I loved Nick’s story of being impressed with Mike Parker as he listened to Beaver telecasts when he was choosing a school. His acknowledgement of MP was first class! The crowd was great in response to every player and coach, but the tribute to Luke brought me to tears.
What a wonderful ride, what an amazing program. I felt really blessed to get the chance to help celebrate with this special group.

Thank you for your take on the celebration at Goss. I live too far away to go, so I was/am curious as to what went on.

IMO it was very dangerously crowded at Goss. PS, it looks like they sold a lot of beer though. Good for the coffers I hope.
