A Damn Good Moment

[GrizMusician]

Born 'n raised in NE Montana, coldest I've ever been in my 45 years. But it was the best Griz game I've seen in Wa-Griz. Hard to believe we had 3 TO's left. :lol:

Yeah my bare legs were a tad bit chilly! :thumb:

I know it makes little sense, but I have NO recollection of how cold it was that night. I do NOT remember being cold at all. All I remember is the fun and the excitement and the winning. Now, the Delaware game back in the late 80s -- that one I remember as very, very cold. I think it all has to do with whether or not the Griz win.

Although it was cold, I don't recall the cold either. It was just such an intense football game I don't think I had time to think about being cold (my legs let me know in the motel room when they started warming up later, wow that really burned!) I thought the cat game the next year in Missoula was colder than the app st game, and the UMass game was a tad chilly as well.

Everytime I hear the black eyed peas song " it's gonna be a good good night" I think about the App st game. i remember walking across the footbridge an hour after the game was over, and they were still playing that song on the PA system, and I could still hear cheers and GO Griz in the distance. What a night! Magical!

The brawl the next year was MUCH colder!

The semifinal against Stephen F Austin in '95 was cold. I remember having to go to the Bookstore at halftime to warm up.

I think it was something like -15 wind chill. I remember when the Stephen F. Austin players got on the field, and the crowd went bananas, that the game was over right there. 70-14. What a game.

 

[NorthwestFresh]

The Troy State semi-final game was pretty damned cold, too, as was the McNeese quarterfinal in 1994.

 

[NorthwestFresh]

Griz/Cat in 1989 was frigid, too, but it was in Bozeman, so the win was nice and made the cold bearable.

the new upper deck east side was rockin ! Reynolds / Sambrano / Lebsock / Johnson ! GO GRIZ

I've told this story before and after seein' that video clip, I can't help but tell it again...

Last September, myself and a small group of friends flew down to Boone for the Griz/ASU game. One of our friends that lives in North Carolina got our small group a complete, unrestricted tour of Kidd Brewer Stadium, and the athletic facilities.

At the end of our tour, we all got to spend about an hour with Coach & Mrs. Moore. He told some very entertaining stories and answered all of our questions. The question I ask him: "If you guy's would have scored on that last drive in Missoula, would you have went for 2?" His answer: "We probably would have...".

As hard as it is to say, I think the Appalachian State game day experience, their football program, and fans are equal to what we have in Missoula!

That's the main reason that I'm REALLY looking forward to this particular game, and it can't get here quick enough!

Yup... And you knew they were gonna give him the ball every play and there was nothing we could do about it besides take it.

+1 ... we went to the UC to warm up at half-time. That's the one and only time I've ever done that.

Still remember this as the coldest game in the history of WashGriz, and man, it was a blast!

Amplify their noise in the concrete bowl that's Washington-Grizzly Stadium, throw in gusts and swirls of wind out of Hellgate Canyon to the east, add a touch of Montana winter nastiness — particularly when a southern team is in for the playoffs — and it's one of the sport's more daunting venues.

The coup de grace is then having to face one of I-AA's top programs. Stephen F. Austin showed up to single-digit temperatures in 1995, 12- to 15-below wind chill readings and snow, as the Lumberjacks drew Montana and star quarterback Dave Dickenson in the I-AA semifinals. Dickenson, now with the NFL's Miami Dolphins, threw five touchdown passes, the Grizzlies' defense allowed just 52 yards on the ground, the crowd serenaded Austin's chilled players with Let it Snow and the Grizzlies rolled 70-14.

The Delaware game was 11/27/93.

I had a field pass for S.F.A. They were frozen popsicles before the kickoff. They couldn't even fake being o.k. They were in all white...and moved around like snowmen. :lol: :egriz: the Brawl...S.F.A... Delaware all super f.....g cold.

 

['68griz]

I don't recall the SFA game in 1995 as being that cold either. Again, the Griz won. I am becoming more and more convinced that my body recognizes cold ONLY when the Griz lose.

 

[firmgriz]

In that SFA game in 95 the boys from Texas came out wearing every article of warm clothing they could find and the Griz came out in short sleeves and half shirts. It was 2 degrees (-15 wind chill) at kickoff. The game was over before it started.

 

[nzone]

SFA was the 1st game I took my wife to. She has budgeted dollars for our season tickets ever since :thumb:

 

[uofmman1122]

I think the coldest game I can remember was the Wofford game.

I went to the SFA game in 1995, but I was 7 at the time, and don't remember it all that well.

 

[RABIDAWG]

Those play off games at home in '95 were pretty damn magical too, especially being at the win at Marshall, so hard to say....but that Appy game still rates up there with '95 for sheer enjoyment, excitement, and that great feeling of Griz mania!

I can tell you I was next to the S.F.A. tunnel when a position group came out to warm up. The leader jumped up and down turned to to face his team mates and let out a yell.......he almost sh!t his pants when he saw his breath extend out 3-4 feet. :lol: They turned and went to warmups in silence. :egriz:
