That first Def Leppard concert would've been amazing. God I wish SB older bro had given 5 year-old SB that Hysteria tape sooner.

you know who else feels bad that you didn't get to go to that first def leppard concert?

wait for it...

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

As someone who has been away for quite a while, I'm fascinated by the hyperbolic LHC Bill Snyder lore that has apparently been taking hold.

KSU had like a 10k enrollment too. Mhk has changed more since 88 than most cities (imho)

50% of the entire population of a pre-LHC Bill Snyder western kansas town

Actual KSU enrollment in 1988: 19,000
Actual Manhattan population in 1990: 43,000

Well Frank Tillman was super loaded back in the day. But my word, there's a house in Wyndham Heights that you approach from the back, and good lord. Enough limestone to for three or four east side facades.

I gave you a hint in the nickname portion, a pretty big one.
