(RoyRules put up this interesting FanPost last night.  We thought, especially with the bye week, it would be create very cool discussion for people here.  What is *your* Cal story?)

Inspired by those silly jumbotron videos during the games, a comment from some other post here on CGB and shockingly BI.

In any case explain here how and when you got into football, Cal football, when you entered Cal, how your football/life was at Cal and when you graduated (or when you will graduate), etc.

Behind the fold is RoyRules' story.

Again my pictures from the student section (50 yard line, 15th row).

Cal warming up. Did not like the blue on white combo

ASU warms up. Some guy tried to taunt the student section and we responded (err I didn't start it but I participated) by chanting U-N-L-V

Rain (thank god it cleared up)

Mack Attack!

Something happened

Longshore under center - I liked him today minus his INT. Cignetti deserves most of the blame for our offense (too... many... screens!) and our O-line was meh

Longshore is bald!?

I saw something truly Berkeley - a 50+ man smoking pot next to me. I have a picture of him smoking but I'm not posting it here... because of the legality and what not

Goodbye!

Should've been a bigger victory. Stupid BS penalty calls and that "Bush Push" TD

Post any photos that you took at the game here. Since my photos are probably (most likely) worse than the others that are gonna get posted I decided to get it out of the way first:

Man it was effing hot.

Handoff to Best (the next play he was injured and left the field. Hope he's ok for next week...)

A single drive by CSU (where Syd recovers a fumble) - youtube link:

San Jose State plays Stanfurd this Saturday at 6PM in Palo Alto. There is a chance for an upset here and ex-Cal player Kyle Reed will start for SJSU. There is talk among the Bear Insider boards that a decent sized Cal contigent might be present at the game wearing blue and gold and since their colors are not that far off from ours it'll work well:

I will be in San Jose this weekend so I may end up going. Is anyone else thinking of doing the same?

BTW tickets here (opens new window).
