Any good Husker player bar stories?

Long time lurker and not much of a poster...thought it would be fun to see if anyone has any good current/previous Husker football player bar stories? I did not attend UNL (sadly) and went to college out of state, but always love to hear stories of Husker players and how they partied, if appropriate for the Board. Otherwise, I'm not offended and I'll go back to my lurking.
