Okay where were you

Sitting on a horse down by a river in Montana watching the game on FirstRow Sports. The rebirth of Iowa football under Captain Kirk. Thanks CJB and Marshall.
At the in-laws 2 days after my mother in law passed in the living room. We believe she was smiling as she was a huge Hawkeye fan. We certainly were.
Beef Basin, in the wild southern Utah desert, 2+ hours from a paved road and even further from cell service. I found one spot on the way out to check the score but it was a long drive home before seeing what actually happened. Great game!
One of the best clips I've seen of this but strangely the crowd seems quieter than in the others.
I was sitting in the first row too but off to your right on the west side in the old student section. Not sure where this will rank so far as games I've attended go (the season will bear on this) but right now it feels up there.
In this clip I found, the people filming it are saying fake it.
My wife and I were in our seats in section 129, row 39. It was an incredible night starting with Greenwood leading the swarm onto the field, the Iowa chant continuing for about 10 minutes and ending with that awesome kick. This is our 31st consecutive year with season tickets and I have to admit that I thought long and hard about not renewing this year. Damn, I'm glad I made the right decision.
Family first. Good dad, you won't forget that. Btw, you drew the long straw my friend. They are gone far too soon.
Section 129 with a good friend. Lot's of screaming and High fives.
Suterman - are you tagged in the gigapixel pic? I saw a tag in the club seats with a name that made me wonder if it was you.

Muttering about the same as most" come on baby just get him inside the 40 and he's got this"
Wife and new two week old daughter in bedroom with me barely able to watch with my arms folded and head down til the snap. Kick on the way and....damn it's short! Wait, wait, Pitt called time and I must admit I didn't realize Marshall was just taking a practice swing. I actually thought at that moment he might not have enough in that leg to make it.
Forward to the actual kick and the second it left his foot I knew it was good by plenty...ensue jumping around like a little kid, and screaming like a maniac! Received the predictable cursing from the wife about the baby sleeping but my new baby girl got her first lesson in being in a house with a Hawk fan in jubilation. Just awesome.....Feeling after was this is going to be a special season..One in which I must admit didn't seem this way just a few short months ago...Good to be a Hawk...
Friday night a buddy sent me a text and asked if I wanted to head over from Des Moines Saturday afternoon. Got tickets at about the 5 yard-line opposite where the kick went through. What an environment (for many reasons). I am 45 years old ... Had season tickets for 10 years ... gone to many more games prior to that ... The Pitt game is in my top 3 of all time ... If you missed it in person ... man ... it was just something special .. Brett Greenwood ... wow ... talk about misty eyes ... Rocking crowd cheering him on ... Hawks win on last-second field goal ... Beautiful weather ... It was the "perfect" night.

Watching in my living room. Had a sleeping baby upstairs so I couldn't yell, but damn that was exciting.
