1000s?

Back in 2003 when Toledo had an early season matchup down in Orlando-UCF, I would venture to say that there were at least 3-4000 Rocket fans in the Citrus Bowl...
I am going by the amount of UT alumni that attended from the Palm Beach/Miami/Tampa/ and Fort Lauderdale chapters, along with the pre-game tailgating functions that the university put on...
All the alumni events - breakfast/luncheons/dinners were packed as well...

It was an amazing play. My favorite Rocket play ever..... It beats out the TD vs. Pitt and Nerd Up The Middle for me.

A lot of offense, and a lot of fun, especially back at my presidential suite the kind folks at “ The Four Seasons “ decided to upgrade me to...

Yes I do remember that.....
