Tales of the tailgate: The North Platte roadshow edition

In a small paved backyard that rests in the well-maintained shadows of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln's Greek Row, the Fun Team gathers each gameday.

But make no mistake, this home game is a roadshow. It's a weekly pilgrimage from North Platte for most of the group, which has been convening in the semi-secluded spot a few blocks east of Memorial Stadium for the past seven years.

Part of the pregame ritual is the pooling of the game tickets and then deciding who among the 30-40 in attendance will be walking the few blocks to witness the game live.
