the podcast? Oh? Damn it scary.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
I was very happy that you finally went. I know
Brooklyn Community College didn't have football.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
It wasn't a community college that will be a two year.
I got my bachelors from Brooklyn College, four year Tuney
City University of New York represent But that was your
first college football game. Yes, I had never been to
a college football game in my life. I'm happy that
it was Rutgers because it's an area college that I followed.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
I've gone to their back.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
In the day there quarterback, A big fan of the sandwiches.
I used to go to College Avenue. I've dated a
couple of girls along the way from from Rutgers.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
So it's so apropos that justify being a fan.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
First of all, the original fat Cats and the fat Daryls,
and the fact they had grease trucks lined up on
College A and and I used to go down there
and buy sandwiches.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
I enjoyed the campus life and the culture.
Speaker 5 (01:25):
And what everybody doing in that stadium over there, right, So.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
You know, so anyway, it was very appropriate, and I
was happy, and especially since a lot of people that
came were on this show graduated from Rutgers, like producers
Sam and our friends Carla, Marie and everybody.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
So I wanted to go.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
I wanted that to be my first college football game,
and it did not disappoint.
Speaker 6 (01:48):
Well, well, by the way, you wanted it to be
your first college but that's what you got paid to go, see,
So that's kind of.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Just happened college though. I'm to be told LG are
partners of ours. What's so funny, you guys.
Speaker 6 (02:03):
It's just funny you say I wanted that to be
my first If Saint John University came at you and said, hey.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
We want St. John, You're missing the point.
Speaker 6 (02:13):
I'm just saying, if LG was part of Saint John University.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
That would be my first college football game.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
Well that was a Big Ten game, yes, because the
Big Ten has eight thousand teams in it anymore.
Speaker 7 (02:24):
But I shouldn't just have ten. I don't understand now.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
I started out as ten and then they got twelve,
and at fourteen, it's just there's eighteen, I think. Actually, yeah,
but going to like the Ohio State University State, Yeah,
I mean, that is next level. So I'm glad you played.
Speaker 8 (02:41):
There's nothing like it. Professional games have nothing on Seriously.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Like I've been to NFL games, I've been going to
a college football game is nothing like anything else.
Speaker 7 (02:53):
So I have a daughter about to choose a college.
Like what college is the craziest football games?
Speaker 2 (02:57):
St Baby? State State, You're not look the problem with.
Speaker 8 (03:02):
Their football program if you recall.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Okay, bring Jerry's and Dusky.
Speaker 8 (03:11):
Uh the Ohio University O H. And I have eyes
that can you know, keep keep watching.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
And Scottie Michigan. We don't let her be biased because
Michigan outside the.
Speaker 8 (03:21):
Game this man went to was on Saturday. Are we
going to listen to him about football?
Speaker 7 (03:26):
Even I've been to a college game before you, Well,
I went to a Hawkeyes game in ninety five.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
I will say though, that I've noticed, first of all,
Deanna who's on the switcher right now.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Uh, she she went there as well, and and she said,
you're gonna have so much fun. And she was so right.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Everything that she told me about what I was going
to experience was, I mean, all.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
The cheers, all the songs.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Well, okay, and let me put a pit pause on
that because if you go as an adult, it's way
different than if you go as a student. Students you
stand the entire game. The only time you sit is halftime.
As a student though, as a student, you go in
that section and you are with the crazies.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Are you with the crazies?
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Yes? Crazy, even if the fan the kids are. A
lot of the.
Speaker 6 (04:12):
Schools call their fans the crazies.
Speaker 7 (04:14):
All the kids. All the kids get first dips on tickets, right,
if you're a student.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
I think there's a lot Like Penn State had a lottery,
So if you're a student going you I think it
was one hundred nineteen dollars or something, you would get
tickets for the entire season, right, But there's a lottery.
Not everybody gets them, but you do get first dips
and it's the student section.
Speaker 6 (04:32):
Yeah, it's so crazy because I went to Saint John's
and it was a basketball school, so we weren't a
football school. So we had that for the basketball games,
all the rallies and the craziness and all the fans,
but it wasn't for football.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
In my in that school, the whole end zone was
the student section and it would there's wild and loud
over there. I've never experienced that in my life. That
is the one thing I could wish I could take back.
If I can go back and do it all over again,
I would go to no offense to Brookly.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
It's not community. I would not go to college community.
It's Brooklyn College, Okay, I would not.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
I would actually choose a school that actually had some
kind of a pride and some real team behind it,
and maybe go away to school somewhere. So if I
could do it all over again, that would be the
one thing.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
I would change about that was I mean, and I
know Gandha you went to like that experience going to
a school like that. I would not give that up
for anything.
Speaker 7 (05:26):
So believe it or I'm actually looking forward to going
to college football games. Believe it or not.
Speaker 8 (05:30):
You believe it, I think you're going to have a
blast if it's I was watching some games this week
and I don't know who they were, but there was
a lot of football on.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
The Penn State had a good game too this weekend.
State one yet we.
Speaker 7 (05:40):
Are going to see one. We're going We're going to
visit Wisconsin, Ohio and Penn State in this next trip.
Ohio state.
Speaker 8 (05:47):
Yeah, telling him this. I told him this.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
He didn't.
Speaker 7 (05:50):
What's a difference.
Speaker 8 (05:52):
Oh my god. First of all, there is there.
Speaker 7 (05:54):
An Ohio in Florida? Also, or is there a Miami
in Ohio.
Speaker 8 (05:57):
There's a Miami in Florida and a Miami University in Ohio.
There's no higher university and the Ohio State University that one,
which is much better.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
What's also great, Yeah, is Madison, Wisconsin was the Badgers.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Yeah, oh my god, I went to the bars. I
didn't go to the game.
Speaker 7 (06:13):
Now were the sandwiches?
Speaker 2 (06:14):
I like the entertainment that surrounds the game.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
So I was there once because we're on in Madison
on Z one O four right, and I went to
a parade so it was like homecoming or something, and
it was amazing.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
I mean, I didn't get to go to the game.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
But anyway, instead of scary ranking the football teams, I
think you should rank the big ten sandwiches.
Speaker 6 (06:34):
But you know, you also have to remember that, you know,
I grew up in the Bronx. He grew up in Brooklyn.
Even in high school, we didn't have homecoming. We didn't
have bonfires like that's movies to us.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
We went deprived right.
Speaker 6 (06:47):
We You look at the movie and I go, I
didn't even have a football field that was regulation. They
built a football field and we couldn't play on it
because it wasn't regulation. But our cheerleaders had sweatpants, like.
We had sweatpant outfits like that was what we grew
up with when we watched this, watch a movie like
this is a move, this doesn't happen.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Had a chess team, yeah, that was We had a
chess team. We were number one in the world and
the best sandwiches. Yeah at the time, number one. We
were number one baby, yeah the team.
Speaker 8 (07:22):
When I was in high school, we got our pep
rallies taken away from us. Is really because my high
school shout out again, there was some hood rash shit
happening popped off up in the top of the bleachers,
but it trickled down. It turned into these two kids
falling and falling all the way down the bleachers, and
then it erupted into a riot. People were like setting
fires in the corners. It turned crazy, and they took
(07:43):
our pep rally away from us. We never have pep
rallies again.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
I thought that megaphones like that only existed in the
Taylor Swift video.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
High school, we didn't have those? Did you have that?
They know?
Speaker 6 (07:56):
Didn't know what a pep rally was till I watched.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
We had a garbage I love that though. I'm like,
this is what high school was supposed to be about.
This is the high school It looked like, is Gary
go back?
Speaker 8 (08:07):
Yeah right?
Speaker 2 (08:13):
I'm so happy. What about you, Garrett?
Speaker 5 (08:14):
My college lost its football team back in the twenties,
and then Royder University lost their football team because of
cheating and they never entered into collegiate football ever again.
So I missed out so all the kids because we
were down the block from Princeton. We went to Princeton
football games, but are kind of boring.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
And Scotting as well.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
So it's the two of you who've only been the
only people in this room that have experienced.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
The true college football spirit high school.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
I do.
Speaker 7 (08:43):
I do regret not living the college life. I don't
care about the scholastics at all, but the social aspect
of it. I'm sad that I missed out on the education.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
I'm sorry, And you know you can lamd base me all.
You want the education you can get anywhere at any college,
any university, but that experience going to a college like that,
I mean animal You guys remember the movie Animal House. Yeah,
that was kind of based on Penn State and those
schools at the time.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
So getting that.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
Experience, like toga parties you guys never went to.
Speaker 7 (09:14):
Or like you've heard about them.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
I've seen them on the screen to get drug he
saw old school.
Speaker 6 (09:22):
When I went to Saint John's was a commuter school.
It wasn't now they have Now they have housing. They
had off campus housing, so I had some friends that
had the housing. So I had my bag in the
back of the car and I would stay at everybody's
different houses because we'd have late night theater practices and
stuff like that. But I still never experience like, you know,
(09:43):
this type of stuff living.
Speaker 8 (09:45):
It was the best I would say, Like, yes, education
is one thing, you can pretty much get that anywhere,
and real life experience is more important at this point. However,
the socialization aspect of college, it's life changing. It's a
totally different That's when you realize not everybody's like you.
There's so much much to learn about the world. Can
you do this without your parents? Like all of it?
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Like Ohio State, right, So you did you lived in
the dorms. I'm assuming no, he never did.
Speaker 8 (10:10):
So I started. I started in Florida, and I looked
in the doors in Florida for.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
Your first year, you have to live in the dorms, right,
And I feel like being put into that situation where
you walk into this room and there's a person sitting
there you have never met my entire life, and it
could be great or could be terrible.
Speaker 8 (10:27):
They put me with a girl fresh off the boat.
They must have just looked at both their names, and I'm.
Speaker 6 (10:31):
Like, nowadays, they don't do that. Nowadays, it's more matching,
like you'll meet you can meet your person beforehand. Yeah,
all my friend, my friend.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Yeah, you can pick.
Speaker 6 (10:41):
Sometimes there's like a website you go to, you like Chad,
who's got.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Things in commate.
Speaker 6 (10:47):
That's that's how they do it.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
My first roommate shows up with a garbage bag filled
with his items that he was bringing, which he was
wearing a pair of jeans. He only had one pair
of jeans, only one pair of pants, and he had
three black T shirts. That was it in the rest,
so he was head in his bag. He had two
extra black T shirts, a Kilbosa sausage and a stick
(11:09):
of margarine. And it was a little awkward.
Speaker 8 (11:19):
But yeah, I mean to your college roommate.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
I mentioned one of another show, Brian. He's great. We chat,
you know, we text every once in a while. But man, yeah, man, Margarine, Margarine.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
My friends they went to Binghamton, so that was so
I was excited because every chance I got, I would
go to live vicariously party school and I would.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Go to the party. I would go.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
They were in college in the woods, and I'm like,
this is what campus life is about.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
This is awesome.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
So I would be up there like every other weekend,
hanging out with my friends in Binghamton.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
I had no choice, the best sandwiches.
Speaker 6 (11:55):
I wish I had studied abroad though, yeah, thing I
didn't do. And I was like, you know what, And
there were so many opportunities. But I mean, like, I'm
sure we all were busy, like I did theater and
I was doing I couldn't even go to spring break
because we had rehearsals. And we think those I know amazing.
Speaker 8 (12:12):
I don't talk to any of my college roommates anymore
because the first one we were just very different. The
second one stole half of my ship when she moved out. Candace,
I want to say her last name, but you know
what you did. And I'm still waiting for my shirts inside.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
That's all right, We're getting candas on tomorrow's podcast, a
