Stu tried to do the standard college stuff like go to football games and the like but found that quite disgusting. His dormmate had his leg crushed in a drunken out of control football crowd at a game against the Cornhuskers. Stu did get to see the "Hick from French Lick" and Magic" play ball in the fieldhouse. This was the same year they both went on to play each other in the NCAA finals.
