b. 1969
lived in outskirts of 'cuse...  huge fan as a kid. 
 
remember listening to a game when I was about 7 or 8.  I dont know the anouncer but he was a SU homer for sure.  "If he just travelled, he did  it in the air"...   listened to every game, uncle who was a cop would sneek me in the games.  Dad had a seat in the floor behind vistors bench.  I usually sat upper deck behind same end.   When the dome opened those seats were usually open.
 
Got an ROTC scholorship to go anywhere I wanted.  Came down to Cornell, SU, Miami, and VT.  Could not go anywhere else.  Enrolled SU fall 88.
 
Ended up being in on naming OTTO in August 90' and shared OTTO duties that year.  Wore that costume for almost 12 hours straights at Miami... Also had misfortune of being Otto for the first 2nd seed to lose.
 
Traded in the costume for regular cheerleading duties so I could see the games and dames better ;)
 
Met a lot of guys through the yrs... Jarhead Jim at Auburn was a highlight.  He parked his truck in between our RVs and slept in the bed that never needs to be made.    Also hosted big tailgates at UMich and Tenn - featuring fireworks from the top of the Knoxvillve PD parking garage...
 
ahhh the good times...
