"But the job wasn't finished....on or off the field. In the stands the faithful flocked, not for a better view, but to make a difference. To perhaps distract a kicker who had been perfect previously. Because at Penn State, everyone is a part of it."

I really wanted to attend Joe's last game. I was worried I would miss it someway, somehow. Turns out I did attend it, and boy was it special and I was fired up big time.
If you havent signed up for premium 247 yet..take my word for it...its worth it!

My wife and I almost left at the end of the 3rd quarter but she actually talked ME into staying. I'm SO glad we ultimately ended up staying. That's a game I will forever remember.
It's crazy looking back on Joe's major milestone games and I was at the vast majority of them. I saw his 300th, 324th, 400th, and 409th victories all in Beaver Stadium.

The tailgate was one of the snowiest I remember. Somewhere, I have pictures of Beaver Stadium from the perspective of the Ag area. Thankfully, the drive from MD was relatively safe. It'll be a game that I'll never forget.

That game was nuts. I was planning on going but then I ended up being forced to work.
Anyway thank god for the snow and I was able to get home for the second half. Turned out to be Joe's last game and possibly the greatest finish to a psu win that we have seen in the past decade. It also put us in prime position to win the division
Who would have thought was coming in the next weeks and months

That day was special. From the drive from philly to melting my rubberpants on a kerosene heater while tailgating. From the snoozefest first half to our final drive and illionois last chance. It was pure adrenaline for 30 minutes. I never hugged so many strangers in my life.

I gave up on this game before psu's last drive.. I couldn't believe they drove 80 yds to score the game winning td.. Just another one of those mysteries in college football..

That's what makes Penn State games special... the little things that you remember with the people that matter most. I just love the fact that EVERYONE can say WE ARE Penn State! and really be a part of it!
...nothing like it in the world!
