sitting high up in the north end zone. When that kick went through it was the loudest single roar I have ever heard in the stadium. People were hugging strangers, crying. It was unbelievable. And I was at the Miami game, which was the best, most intense game I ever attended. The Terrell knock down was a close second.

But in '80 there was a jerk Ohio State fan sitting a couple of rows in front of us in a red jacket. He pretended to want ND to win saying he hated Michigan etc. He talked the whole damn game, a typical 'the" asswipe. Then when Michigan went ahead with something like 46 seconds left he turned around yelling and doing a mocking sign of the cross over and over again and yelling at 'You papists" or something like that.

When the kick went through, after I finished hugging some guys wife or girlfriend, we look down and that guy was running down the steps at full speed. People were yelling at him but you couldn't hear it was so loud. Great memory.
