Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

Color me impressed...

Back in my indiscretion filled youth, I was always pretty impressed with some of the "souvenirs" my friends and I collected.  My personal favorites included an airplane picture from the 'Liner and a game ball from Kinnick.  But seriously, I bow in humility and humbleness to whomever had the cajones to steal  the "O" flag.  Granted the "I" would have been better, but that is nonetheless spectacular.  I truly hope it was some extremely sauced fan that after the game some how removed the flag from its pole, folded it up and got it out of the stadium.  That individual will have the best  "This one game... " story of all time.

However, if it's really needed back for the game this weekend (and I can't believe they don't have backups), there is only one person who could be trusted with such a mission...

Nice

That definitely tops my roommates story. In 2000 or 2001, whichever year we spoiled Northwestern’s Rose Bowl bid at Kinnick; he stole on of their towels from their bench after everyone rushed the field. It was funny at the time.

My friend had the endone pylon....

from the Metrodome after we rushed the field in 2002. He put it under his coat and out we went. We took it with us to Brothers downtown (even cheesier and more awesome than the IC version) and stood it up on the bar as we proceded to stack empty bottles and shot glasses next to it. Eventually a new bartender came on and saw it sitting there. He was a gopher fan and told us he didn’t know whether to be pissed or impressed. We all blacked out and we believe we left it there or lost it on the way to the hotel. Best. Day. Ever.
