Mid 90s, Old Cardinal stadium, had to be on of the last years we were there, and he was near the end of his coaching career

I was in a busy concession line down in the corner by the porta potties. Remember the porta potties?

Looked to my right and Coach Crum was right beside me waiting to buy a dog just like everyone else.

We were playing Penn State maybe? Can't remember for sure.(Penn State boat raced us when we played-I do remember that)

He could not have been any nicer--talked about recruiting, the football game, and golf for a second.

Nobody else really bothered him-surprised me

I was a complete nobody. Still am. But he wasn't too "big time" to chat

He was such a classy, nice man

And I hope history never forgets what a great coach. Nobody was ever better in the clutch and out of a time out

I will be there tonight and probably wipe away a tear.
