My husband and I were there. Partied so hard after winning, we missed the charter back to GF! Begged our way on to a flight to Mpls - turned out the Gopher team was on it! We were the last 2 on the plane - suffice it to say, they were none to happy to see us in our Fighting Sioux apparel!! Hopped a flight home and got back in time for the celebration at the old Ralph!

Yup.

It was surreal.

17,000 dressed in green and white.

15,000 in stunned silence at getting drubbed.

2,000 going crazy at the awe-inspiring performance by the Hrkac Circus.

I remember watching that entire season as an 8 year old. That was the season my addiction to Fighting Sioux hockey began.
