Long johns, turtle neck, rag wool socks, and a couple of handwarmer powerbanks you're in business.

Fun Fact: within an hour's drive (100km) Toledo has a higher population than any of the C's.

As someone who was in the stands when Jerry Rhome and Howard Twilley led Tulsa against the Rockets, I know a little about likely the worst weather ever for a UT game. It got down to 12 degrees and although it didn't snow during the game, there was tons on the ground and they had to shovel the field, but not the stands. I don't think there were 100 people in Glass Bowl. I sat on the east side up against the tower to block the north wind. I don't think they talked about wind chill then. November 21,1964, and unfortunately the Rockets lost 39-16 to the best passing duo in football.

Some guy named Dan Simrell at QB for the Rockets.

Simrell was one of my teachers at Start High and football coach.

His wife was in my class at DeVilbiss.

Gotta try one of these...

Anyone remember the 2013 game vs. UB? That was one of the coldest I remember.

If I remember, that was the game where the students were throwing snowballs at their receivers as they were running down the sidelines?
