I hope so, since one of the planes landed in the middle of PA. Important that we continue make this a day of honor. Never forget what happened and honor the dead.I see that a lot of college football programs are commemorating the 20th anniversary of 9/11. is Penn State planning anything special.
It was a such a mixed bag of emotions being in Beaver Stadium against Wisconsin just days after 9/11. I was happy to have our football Saturdays back, scared thinking 110,000 people in one location could be another terrorist target, sad when they played the national anthem, and pissed off with the terrible game that day. Never felt anything like that day in Beaver.
It’s an ongoing thing for the 9/11 first responders. What they saw, the friends they lost, that’s a burden, an unspeakable burden. And WaPo recently had an article about how many first responders are exhibiting “alarming cognitive decline.” Ground Zero was Hell on Earth, no question.Not just the 9/11 victims that day.. All the service members who gave their lives the last twenty years since this began.
God Bless them and our country.
Yes, I caught it as well.One of the best speeches I've heard from any President

Pats family, his wife and his son and daughter were honorary captains at the game today.I am sure that there are many 9/11 connections to PSU and PSU Football.
One that I am aware of is back up place kicker and punter on 1985 and 1986 team Pat Dwyer died when the twin towers fell.
