What's The Craziest Things You've Ever Seen In The Dome?

[dollarbill44]

I sharted in my pants & the old lady behind me died

Like, "Bad Grandpa" style?

 

[Millhouse]

I was there late that season, remember the dildo tossed on field began there

It may have started there but it was perfected in Buffalo

Now, that does sound crazy!

26 years ago Miami came north and: Nov 28, 1998. Miami travels to Syracuse and gets blasted by the Orangemen 66-13 in the finale home game for QB Donavan McNabb.

I hope it happens again, not that much of a blowout, I just hope we win the game!

I’ve told this story here before, but what the heck…

In the Dome’s first game, I was sitting with a friend in the last row of the lower section, right against the concrete wall. On those days, the coaches and opposing coaches were in private boxes. We had the Miami, OH coaches right behind us. We always stood up on the benches to watch the game.

At various times during the game, my friend thinks it’s funny to flip the bird at the coaches behind us. When Miami scored at one point, the Visiting coaches were very excited. But then they kicked off to Joe Morris and he returned it all the way for a TD. I put my hands up in celebration, and one of the Miami coaches - who was pissed - reached over the wall and grabbed MY hand by the middle finger and yelled “Do that again and I’ll break it off!”

This is extremely disappointing and totally ruins the perception of a guy who was a fixture of some of my earliest childhood memories.

I’m sorry that happened to you.

49.83% of the population has no problem with this kind of behavior.

Not in the Dome but it involved SU.

SU at Toledo. Late in the game, a Toledo player goes down on his own and a hush falls over the stadium as the medical team attends to him. Later, it was revealed that the player had an asthma attack although the crown assumed something very serious.

As I am standing there in this dead-quiet stadium I turn around and Otto is walking behind me. He turns, gives me a wave, and then saunters into the men's room. It struck me as both bizarre and hilarious.

which is interesting, because Otto is usually a female...

The orange thrown that splattered against the backboard when Ewing went to the line in an 80s game vs. Gtown.

I feel like I should read through this with my lawyer.

I've had season tickets since I was in 8th grade and my 20's were a wild ride...

 

[Dinkyspond]

That was so eerie. You could hear a pin drop except for Michelle's moans. And it went on for so long.

I will never forget that, I was not in the Dome but was watching on TV, TV eventually cut away.

Alway check this thread for a chuckle.

The fights in the stands, with the ones being hit falling down multiple rows during the Sugar Ray Leonard fight.

I have a few but my own personal embarrassment would be 1996 VT game. Hosted a tailgate and was invited onto field as Alum Cheerleader. I help lead the team out... I gave myself a good cushion as I had brought a keg of Killians to the tailgate. I did love that Irish Read Ale back then... welp I never knew how those lines could just jump up and trip you ... i did a total nose dive just past mid-field. That carpet was not forgiving... winded, wind knocked out, and fully embarrassed I got up and ran straight to my seats in the far endzone. I got abused by friends the rest of the day. We crushed them that day. So I did my part.

I was at that game. That was the Tebucky Jones reverses field and runs for a long TD game. That was a fun one

Otto s neither - however the person assuming the Otto identity was historically only male. In 1990-1991 it opened to either gender- since then it has prob been evenly split with those earlier years being more men…

 

[BomberOrange]

This may be urban legend, or , something I made up in my own mind. But , I swear at a WVU football game, the announcer said over the loud speakers that someone needed to move their tractor in the parking lot as it was parked illegally. He went onto say it had WV license plates, number was EIEIO ..

That Supposedly happened at a backyard brawl game at Pitt

 

[VTAaron]

Let it be known I called out the Syracuse over Miami win and field rush here first!

 

[OrangePA]

I was there. I never heard the dome so quiet. You could literally hear a pin drop. I believe the ref actually died, but was rescutated on the field.

He was saved - lives in Philly and occasionally calls into WIP Sports Radio

Otto is Otto, if anybody is playing them it's a well-kept secret. *However,* on senior day, when introducing the senior athletes, they also introduce seniors who are Otto's Special Friends.

In the past few years, my cursory estimate is that 70-80% of Otto's special friends are women, and from the way they blaze out, 100% of them have big personalities and big hearts.

I came here looking for a post saying how someone was at the hand washing station in the mens room with someone that couldnt couldnt figure out how to activate the water.
So whoever the poster was said that he proceeded to walk towards the circular station and tell the guy to simply talk to it and the water will come out. He messed with the guy stepping on and off the pedal as he spoke...lol.
Well I said to myself that I was definitely gonna use that if the opporunity arose.
So at the Wake Forest BBall game a young father and id say his 5 year old were trying to wash their hands but just could not get the water to work.
I casually walked up and pretended that I too couldnt get water to come out...so I looked at them and said maybe its voice activated. In my robot voice I said ~please water come out~and gave a quick tap on the pedal.

The little boy was amazed and began talking to the water as i held down the pedal. He was totally thrilled and thought it was the coolest thing ever. Dad had figured it out by that point, we had a good laugh.
