The 2005 Penn State season opened up with a game against South Florida, with the Nittany Lions beating the Bulls 23-13 ... before the game, however, the meteorology grad students hosted a tailgate party, which actually was the first tailgate I'd ever been to! ... I'd been to a Vikings game with 65,000 fans at the Metrodome and an Australian Football League game at the Melbourne Cricket Ground that had 70,000 fans, but never before had I experienced anything like Beaver Stadium at Penn State, with over 100,000 fans in attendance, it was awesome!
