I tracked down GLEN WETZEL to congratulate him and his son for their loyalty to Illinois football.
As shown above in the marvelous (morbid?) picture taken by News-Gazette photographer STEPHEN HAAS, they were two of only a few who kept their seats until the very end of last Saturday's 63-0 debacle against Iowa. They practically had the north end zone stands to themselves when the final buzzer sounded.
"We were just chilling out, talking about school and sports and stuff. You know, chit-chatting," said Glen, 58, recently retired from his job at Country Insurance.
