After
losing football for Stanford for 7 years, U cal berkeley people
hate Stanford!! So imagine the rivalry that day when Stanford Cardinal
met Cal bears (football team names) on Berkeley home ground! 2 months
before this event, there were hate-Stanford posters everywhere.
According to my friend Ryan who's at Berkeley on exchange, you'll
die in Berkeley if you wear a Red Tshirt in the dorms! That's how
much they hate Stanford.
All
the shops around Berkeley all had 'support Cal and anti-stanford'
signs. Eventually, Stanford lost to Cal 7-30. It was a lousy game.
I thought that they really played badly. But football itself was
boring too. What was amazing were the number of people who were
there, and the crazy berkeley people!

We were lucky! Met the Stanford football team when they were
just about to go into the field. They all look hunky and BIG |
People were screaming ' GO STANFORD!' |
| 
There were SOOO many people! (71,000 in all) And this is
only half of the Stanford section which was 1/3 of the whole
Stadium excluding those cheapo Berkeley students who were
watching the game from top of a hill |
This is the Stanford cheerleaders and err...watever tree |

Players getting ready for the game |

See that! It's an anti-stanford sign by the Berkeley students |
10 secs before the game ended, the Berkeley students self
declared that they won and rushed onto the field! It was pure
madness |
| 
Crazy!! They eventually pushed away all the policemen and
tore down the goalposts |
