Erik Wemple was a teenager in 1980 when he attended the game with his brothers. He remembers the incredible experience, including the ride up, watching the game, celebrating the victory, and running out of gas driving home. The game is a powerful shared memory in his family. “It always brings … sort of a jolt to me and my brothers when the conversation comes around to that,” Wemple says.
