Milton Andrew Munson’s obituary recalled his life as an Air Force veteran, a pharmacist, husband and father, and as a Nebraska football fan. That was evident in one line in the obit: “In lieu of flowers, please place an irresponsibly large wager on Nebraska beating Iowa.”
Munson, 73, died Nov. 16. The obit, written by Munson’s sons, ran in the Hastings Tribune, the Lincoln Journal Star reported.
Milton Munson’s love for the Huskers, and gambling, had to be part of his story, said Troy Munson, a neurosurgeon in Des Moines, Iowa.
Nebraska quarterback Adrian Martinez was out for Friday's game, but Todd Munson wrote on Twitter that the Huskers would be getting some help from other places.
“If the ghost of my old man can’t will the Huskers to victory on Friday, then they truly are a lost cause.”
Unfortunately for the family, the Hawkeyes dominated Nebraska in the game's final 20 minutes to win 28-21.
But since Munson was a betting man who stuck with the Huskers (who now have lost to Iowa for seven straight years), we know there's always hope for next year.
Rest peacefully, Milton.
