Someone was asking in an earlier thread about whether the roof was open or closed at Reliant Stadium when we played TCU. Here's a photo of the stadium during the game and it appears to be open.
2006 Houston Bowl
- Thread starter elreh
- Start date
That game was that season rolled into one game.
Walter Nickel wasn't down!!!!!!!!!
The play that changed the game

Didn't Austin Flynn have one too? Rolled off the defender but they call him down....maybe it was Nickel.
Either way nothing about the game shocked me.
Berryman was incredible that game. Stadium sold beer, I indulged.
This was the first sporting event I attended after turning 21. In related news, I don’t remember much of this game.
Same here. In fact I feel like I can remember being annoyed it wasn't open (it was nice outside that day). That said, the pics sure make it appear it was open.
It’s because Shiner Bocks we’re sold everywhere.
I drank way too much at 2 places: Armadillo, Volcano. One of those places had frozen screwdrivers. Ouch.
It is possible I'm confusing it with the Insight Bowl or something else, but I'm fairly confident the game started with the roof closed and was opened sometime during the game (maybe halftime). Picture with the open roof is from the start of the 4th.
Berryman was awesome that game. Chatted with his dad after the game. He was a proud Papa.
The more I think about it, I think it was opened during pregame warm ups. I remember thinking why isn't the roof open after walking in from outside, but then watching it as it opened.
I was there and have very fuzzy memories about it. We tailgated pretty hard. I know it was beautiful weather...
My most vivid memory was Berryman trying to pick a fight with TCU players after the game was over. Teammates held him back/escorted him off the field. Can anyone confirm?
