Autzen Stadium was all lit up tonight making me think there were some visitors. Anyone have any knowledge?

Could be but they could also be doing some maintenance work or maybe one of Chip's punishment days.

It's against safety regulations to force players to run the steps at Autzen in the dark.

I never post here but I do know this answer... Pop Warner are having their championship games in Autzen this whole weekend. Both my boys played yesterday and won... pretty awesome. I coach so I was able to be down on the field for both games. Now on to basketball....

YUP, I am headed over there in a half hour for my 7 year old's game. I cant believe they get to play there. I didn't play in Autzen till i was a junior in high school.

I had the opportunity to help coach several Spring HS soccer games there when my kids were playing... Even though it wasn't "real" football, the team thought it was an awesome experience.

Welcome and congratulations to you and your sons! Please feel free to post more often, we hope to hear more from you soon.

Thanks, it was an experience I will never forget. I hope we do it again next year. The boys had a blast and we are already looking forward to next season. I see you live in France... I lived in Amsterdam for a while.... tough to watch games live with the time difference and all.

So does anyone have an official count of who was on hand last night?

From what I can gather via the other sites, there was at least 4 official visitors and possibly 1 unexpected: Ebert, Bigelow, Vaughn, Shelton + 1 unknown. Ebert & Vaughn have definitely been confirmed.

Yes, it is tough to watch the games! I usually watch them online, but the time difference can be a killer. Unfortunately, I did not make it to the second half of the game last night, I was too tired at 3AM... I'll watch it on GoDucks tomorrow.
