Living in my 10' x 15' room in Dunbar Hall, Harshman Quad.
I don't think Dunbar is even open any longer.

It was a short walk to the Ice Arena, but a really, really long walk(stumble) from Howards or Brathaus....LOL

Not even alive yet. It wouldn't be until 6 years later I was born and start my first of 23 seasons of watching BG hockey.
Bring back the glory!

Listening to that game on the radio in my room in Bromfield was the night that Mrs. Rood and I started dating.
I love people who can laugh at themselves. It saves me the effort.

At this time of year in 1988, I was 3 years old and didn't even know hockey was a thing. I was more interested in Sesame Street, Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, and playing with my toys. I was also staring accusingly at my parents for bringing my younger brother into the world a mere 9 months before that.

I was not even 2. We lived in another state and Ohio was where my grandparents lived in their cold wind-swept farm. Naturally I thought all of Ohio was a cold windy farm. Turns out I was right.

At the Joe watching the dejected looking faces of the Michigan State fans. And then watching BG hoist the trophy!

I was three months from completing my second year of post-BGSU employment... And I still work at the same place.
