Message: [QUOTE="OrangePA, post: 679833, member: 204"] The old west archway entrance to Archbold was beautiful - at least I thought it was as a kid. I remember when I went to my first game at age 9 - in October, 1968. We walked from the Quad into the northeast gate. And I walked over and realized - wow - the field is way below the entrance level of the stadium! I looked down and saw the blue jerseys and orange pants and helmets and the green grass. It just knocked me out. It was sunny and beautiful. (I think that was one of the last times that I attended a game after that where the weather was actually nice - I can think of maybe three or four games after over the next eleven years when it was warm and sunny). But the first experience for me at Archbold - SU v. Pitt - 1968 - was a great moment in my life - it was what brings me to this sight every day. [/QUOTE]
