What’s been happening:

I still remember watching the 1982 National Champion Nittany Lions football team, and of course, the tailgates both before and after the game. I distinctly remember coming out of my dorm at the old Nittany 24 on the Monday after the Maryland game, on the way to an 8:00 class, and seeing none other than Joe Paterno walking right towards me. I have to admit I was a bit intimidated with a living legend walking right towards me. When we were about 10 feet away from each other, he pulled out his handkerchief and sneezed violently, and we both continued on our way. I guess I should have said Hi, but I was interrupted by the sneeze. I still watch every game, but now it's just on TV.
