Before the launch, I had complete faith that NASA had their shit together, so when the whole shuttle assembly started breaking up into smaller pieces, I couldn’t believe it. Yeah, that was a day I remember well. @Mag6240, were we standing next to each other, or were you in a different residence hall? That would have been it! Only I walked in as it came apart… small world! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted, I was 7 years later than you with my MSU college life I spent very little time on that side of campus - only time I “remember” was walking down the hill there and a guy I was with thought “ok, we’re off campus, let’s open one of these Green Death’s we just bought and slam it!” Well, it slipped out of his hands and started rolling down the sidewalk, spraying all over as he chased it into the grass off the sidewalk tumbling into the grass - funny as shit!
