That Nevada helmet looked comfy, so....

Bump

[Big Easy Pony]

Drunk dude somehow got on the Nevada sideline. Grabbed a helmet and lined up at strong safety. Awesomeness!

Did he actually line up as a player? I thought he just got in the huddle and then got arrested. Am I forgetting?

[couch 'em]

I recall him lining up as an LB or CB

[SMUer]

I think he ran up as the huddle was breaking; he got in a LB position but really nobody was fooled that he was a player

Are there any Video clips of this incident available? It sounds like something I would enjoy seeing.

For example, I make sure to watch the Youtube clip of the SMU cheerleader kicking the Corp dude's ...

We need to bribe the video coordinator to dig through the vaults.

I could have sworn that someone on here posted a video of the helmet incident. Can't find it.

I saw it in person, but I've never actually seen video of the incident.

I have not seen a video but the actual person who performed the act posted about it here a while back. He "Paul Harveyed" it and gave us the rest of the story including the night in jail. It is a good read if someone can search it out.

That would be... this very thread!

Oops. Did not realize it had been bumped.

It's hell getting old, huh?

In the DC article, a couple of things stand out to me:

"On the Mustangs’ next drive, Eckert completed four straight passes, but then was sacked and after two attempted passes into the end zone to wide receiver Reynaldo Pellerin, SMU settled for a touchdown to take a 10-3 lead."

How do you "settle" for a touchdown? It the best you can do. Were they hoping for a mythical 10 point play or something?

"After Nevada was forced to punt, backup quarterback Jerad Romo took over for Eckert. After marching the offense, to the Nevada 6-yard line, Eckert’s pass was intercepted on third-and-goal."

So Romo took over for Eckert, and then Eckert threw a pick? This makes no sense.
