I was not at that football game, but I was still living in Syracuse. I moved to NYC a couple of months later, and I remember one of the last things I did when I came back to bring my car down to NY, was to drive by Archbold and see it being torn down. I never got to see the dome until 1988 when my husband and I were living in Toronto, and came down for a basketball game against Michigan. We stayed at the Sheraton, which did not exist when I was at SU. And we went to Faegan's with my kid's babysitter who was a sophomore, and I got carded. I was 34, and so excited to get carded. Back to the Archbold drive by. I had grown up on Syracuse football, having attended one or two games a year with my parents starting in 1959 or 1960. So Archbold represented everything that Syracuse was to me. It is why I chose to attend school there, and I never missed a game in the years I was a student 1972-1976. We were really bad then. We went 5-6, then only won 2 game the next 2 years, and then we went 6-5. I didn't go to many games in the couple of years after I graduated so I was not at that last game that I remember, because I don't remember them tearing everything down. I think I went to M street after though.
