Badger-Buckeye Football Game


This evening, my eyes will be somewhat glued to the Badger-Ohio State football game at Camp Randall.
Wisconsin has almost always played the Buckeyes close and tonight should be no exception.
If U.W. wins, I hope there is not a repeat of the October 30, 1993 meeting between the Badgers and Michigan, where the fans stormed the field and many people were seriously injured.

I was working at U.W. Hospital at the time and was involved with some of the treatment of the injured and it was total chaos. But the man who saved many lives that day was the medical director of the City of Madison paramedic service and he was on the radio with numerous ambulances, running codes. I believe the doctor was also in the stands and was helping direct the rescue as well.
Anyways, if U.W. wins, there will be wild partying on State Street. If U.W. loses, there will be wild partying on State Street. Just hope everyone is safe tonight.
