I got to say that was the craziest atmosphere I have ever been around. Very impressed with Beaver Stadium and the crowd noise. It was even electric at 17-0 and during tv timeouts.
I don't know what it is but the Shoe can only dream of being that loud. A buddy and I were discussing how we sometime think OSU has a pro vibe where the fans just expect things or act like they're above the ra ra atmosphere. If the Shoe could ever get to the level I saw last night I'd be impressed. Their student section was brilliant.
Our group got their Friday morning and stayed in the RV lot. All encounters were unbelievably friendly. All except 2 instances. Beyond that I would definitely recommend going to a Penn State away game.
