Hi everyone I really don't like writing this, but I found out this morning board member Elizabeth Reed passed away last night. It was very unexpected and as of right now I don't know anything else.

Very sad. RIP.

Shit, I knew he was older but you just don't expect to see this kind of news. Sometimes this truly feels a little like fantasy and you forget about the real shit people are dealing with.

RIP BBTown.

This is absolutely terrible news. Denny was a great guy and a good friend. He will be missed.

Please let me know if there is a GoFundMe or anything we can do for his wife or family

RIP Bomber

Fuck. RIP bomber.

Unbelievable. He always seemed like such a good guy and had a great sense of humor. This board and this state is worse off without him. R.I.P.

For those that don't know he was also BBtown Bomber in Rivals and Tater Island. He was a great dude and one of the biggest Husker fans I knew.

Oh my God. Prayers lifted up for my friend and his wife Mary Ann, and their multitude of children and grandchildren. The Bomber was one of a kind.

And finally, he talked a lot of shit on these boards, but he always found a way to clean up after himself ... because the sonofabitch hoarded ALL the toilet paper in Western Nebraska during COVID!



Rest in peace, amigo. I wish I had a Falstaff to raise up in your memory.

Damn, terrible.

 

[That SOB Van Owen]

Holy shit. Fucking sucks. RIP.

Loved that guy. We'd swap old Allman Brothers concert videos from the late 60s and early 70's on Rivals many years ago. I'll miss him.

 

[Tyneb23]

Wtf noooooooooooo

 

[Faux Sean Callahan]

Wow. He posted at about 9 PM last night, too. Prayers for his family.

Yeah for some dumb reason the last couple weeks I haven't noticed him posting a ton and would check to see when he last posted thinking the worst.

Great guy and a great friend. Was lucky enough to have a few beers with him a couple months ago.

RIP buddy
