I like The Stripe Out. It works well on paper

But a write in candidate-the Whire Out on the night Joe passed. It was his last white out.

 

[Norm Petersin]

So many great sights! I love them all.

 

[BobPSU92]

January 2012, night, snow on the field, serene. R.I.P., Joe.

 

[ChiTownLion]

One final whiteout from Joe.

 

[psuro]

Love the cloud pics of Joe.

That JVP video brought tears to me eyes, even though I have seen it before! I really miss Joe!

 

[john4psu]

Eight or 10.

Me too. He was the best.

Thank you, Joe. For everything.

Thank you, Joe. For everything.

Me too. Can't believe it still hits so hard after all these years. Was going to send it to @PSUEngineerx2, but don't want to ambush him with the sneak-attack feels.

^^ Exactly what I was looking for!!! Unreal. Wonder if mother nature has her own ideas for honoring JVP on Sept 3. Thanks, @MtNittany. #409

 

[Phil's Rug]

Way to many to pic just one but I'll toss in a few more

 

[ChiTownLion]

Other unforgettables...

 

[fairgambit]

I picked #4. No Stripe Out, no White Out, no gimmicks of any kind. Just a stadium full of cheering fans wearing whatever they wanted. Pure, simple, old school...the way college football was meant to be.

The weather radar clip is from 9:59PM to 10:31PM, so it had to be an awful late procession. Cool pattern.

We Are, because you were, Joe. We still have the memories as well as the Home and Family you built.

Thanks Chi but you know how those videos make me emotional...even after all these years.

As I've told you before, my father passed when I was 4 yrs old. I looked at Joe as a father figure, as many others did.

Loved that man. Hate with a deep dark passion everyone who tore him apart in his final days.

Here is what the old battleship looked like when I was at State, so I'm kinda fond of this one...

 

[Sharkies]

Couldn't vote, love them all and could barely see after watching that JVP Forever video. Thank you for posting, I needed to see that tonight.. Miss Joe, and won't stop fighting til we right all the wrongs and get the truth.

That JVP video brought tears to me eyes, even though I have seen it before! I really miss Joe!

I couldn't even get through it... He was so special, so loyal, such a good coach, and so caring. Joepa was everything I know to be a good about a man.

It's just a damn shame

It's just a damn shame

The single greatest (wrongful) media character assassination of an individual that I have ever seen.

 

[We Are . . .]

They're all good. So many great memories were formed in that stadium.

 

[NittanySteel]

This one is my personal favorite.

I love the SI pic in the OP from the 2007 Notre Dame game, too.

 

[fastlax16]

I can actually find myself in #6. My friend dressed up as Spider-Man for that game so it’s easy to spot the red dot in the student section.

 

[psugisher]

I like them all for different reasons.. any good ones of the 2016 OSU game when the field was rushed? I stayed in the stands to watch but my phone was long dead so no pics were taken. Was a beautiful sight to take in.

That first video with the Hans Zimmer track from Inception in the background was.... moving.

Good taste. My favorite, as well. Even made a post about it over the summer (link). Would love to meet the creator "Bitsandstuff" and shake his hand and offer a small donation for his excellent production titled, "JVP Forever," a tribute to Penn State's Joe Paterno.

 

[ChiTownLion]

Love the cloud pics of Joe.

[PSU73]

I can't pick one, so I'll add this from 1981. I like this picture because of the parking and the old blue and white diamonds in the end zone.

 

[BOSCO2]

One final whiteout from Joe.

Damn, got me crying again.

 

[MtNittany]

Great post ChiTown.

 

[MJG-90]

A ton of broken links in this thread. I guess the conspirators are acting out again.

A ton of broken links in this thread. I guess the conspirators are acting out again.

Is that why many of the photos, for me at least, show only a square with a red X in it?

Find the whiteout picture in sports illustrated front cover. That is the best picture
2005? Possibly?
