November 24, 200619 yr This Hurricanes team fought back and overcame some poor offensive play and won it for Pata. I was there tonight and the standing ovation given to Pata was awesome but the moment of silence that followed was the most chilling and aweinspiring thing I've ever seen. The entire Orange Bowl was quiet. And at the end of the game, the banner for Pata was taken by the players marched around to midfield and they all knelt to it. Great job to end the season on a high note!
November 24, 200619 yr We're going bowling!!! (How did you get home so quickly? You must live within walking distance of the OB.)
November 24, 200619 yr Author Naw I had to leave at the half. One of the people with us wasn't feeling well.
November 24, 200619 yr nice to see them end the season on a high note now the question becomes whether they fire coker now or wait until after the bowl game. i think it needs to be done asap in order to expedite finding a replacement.
November 24, 200619 yr The entire Orange Bowl was quiet. Dude, it was like that the whole game. No one went.

November 24, 200619 yr That was a great game last night... The team played their hearts out, and gave it their all for their fallen teammate... great way to end a very difficult season... Lets Go Bowling, Canes!
November 24, 200619 yr Author The entire Orange Bowl was quiet. Dude, it was like that the whole game. No one went. You're hilarious. There were 25k people there. And when you can hear a pin drop in the orange bowl with 25k people there its very chilling.

And when you can hear a pin drop in the orange bowl with 25k people there its very chilling. He is right, 'nobody went'. When there are 24K people at a stadium that seats about 75K, to me, that qualifies as nobody going (obviously not in the literal sense). I guess when 2 out of every 3 seats are not filled, there is a solid reason for you being able to hear a pin drop.

Great job to end the season on a high note! Have you never seen a moment of silence at a sporting event? I didnt think UM handled honoring Pata before the game all that well. I think it wouldve been better had the moment of silence been for when he was going to run out Now after the game, THAT was chilling. All the players going to midfield and praying around the Pata banner was really touching
