Blast From the Past: Game Viewing 25 Years Ago....
Nowadays, with Satellite TV and high definition LCD screens we can watch our beloved Badgers play every game, even way out here in the Bay Area.
It wasn't always this way. See below for a flyer and picture from a 1983 game viewing hosted by former Bay Area Badgers president Dan Cloutier, and his wife Joan. Times sure have changed! But what hasn't changed is the passion that Wisconsin fans have for their team. Here is a note from Dan:
Attached is group photo from the UW Football game "listening party" that was in our backyard October 1983. We took advantage of the "leading-edge" technology du jour, with the long distance phone call to radio station WISM, Madison; and ran the game broadcast via alligator clips on the the phone receiver, then to an amplifier and big speakers. Long distance call for 3 hours: about $30...value of Badger spirit and camaraderie: priceless! As I recall, the Badgers won their homecoming game against Indiana.
On Wisconsin!

This Badger spirit lives on, 25 years later. Hope to see you all at our viewing locations in the Bay Area to cheer on the Badgers to victory!
