2 Quick ones:
After Staley scampers down the sideline to beat Utah in 2001 - the place goes bonkers. I look at the crowd as it is like a sea of pandemonium. I catch two large Utah fans standing on the top row on the north side of the East stands rapidly grabbing any coats they can get their hands on and heaving them over the back of the bleachers. Every BYU fan in the area is so distracted jumping up and down celebrating that no one seems to notice the two Ute fans' shenanigans. They keep frantically finding coats and tossing them over. I'm in the east corner of the north stands but have a perfectly clear view of what is happening. One of the guys looks up and sees me staring and being too far away to hear each other he gives me the finger ... tries to maintain eye contact while he grabs another coat and while staring me down he bends down grabs another coat and throws it over while keeping his glaring stare on me. He then points at me as if to say "There! Now we are even"--- I was laughing so hard I had to sit as I almost passed out.

The second funniest thing I've seen came during the Crowton years...maybe 2002? Hawaii was in town and a torrential rainstorm commenced. Some guy came back from the concessions area having found a huge cardboard box. He had cut a hole in the top to where his head fit through. He pulled it over like a T-Shirt only he didn't cut arm holes, so his arms were straight down unable to bend as the box just about reached his waist. He didn't care though as he was king of the stands and proudly strutted showing off his ingenuity. He had the "don't be jealous I've been chatting with babes all day Napoleon" look. I'd almost forgotten about him until he started heading back down the stairs. He tripped and fell without the ability to catch his fall since his arms were inside the box. I realize he could've gotten hurt really bad - but something about seeing him slide down the stairs is still locked in my brain and I still laugh at that visual of him gaining speed and momentum as he did the skeleton down the steps.
