This is an absolute must.


Maybe they could name the field after him.

Thinking of Paul after the events of this past week. He's gotta be giddy smiling down from above. No fan deserves this moment more.

I thought the same thing. He would have been so proud, plus all of these great new stadiums to visit to continue the streak. Sad…but confident that he’ll continue to be at every game in spirit.

I remember him from the freshman quad when I transferred from Kilgore College as a junior engineering major in 1972.

No room in the upper class dorms, I was assigned room 209:in Morrison Hall in the Freshman quad where he was assigned also.



Seems he quickly became a standout leader in orientation, and made cheerleader a year or two later.

RIP.
May the forth be with us.

I thought of him too, after I thought how excited my sweet Daddy would be. Lots of wonderful Angels happily smiling down.

One of my first thoughts was about how excited Paul would have been.

Once a cheerleader, always a cheerleader!

It really, really sucks that he didn't live to see this.
