Screen Shot 2015-10-08 at 7.40.45 AM

Would you believe there once was a time when Florida State strolled in to Winston-Salem and came home with a loss? On this day in 2011, Wake Forest ran past the mighty Noles for a 35-30 win as Josh Harris ran for 136 yards under the guidance of legendary Deacs coach Jim Grobe. Some quick facts about that day:

  • A gallon of gas costs $3.80
  • America’s top celebrities:  Justin Bieber, Jay Z, Kim Kardashian
  • Singer Bruno Mars had a #1 single
  • America’s president: Barack Obama
  • You may have “tweeted” about the game on your “iPad2”  (ask your parents what these mean)

We found this amazing film from a fan in the stands that day recorded on something called an “iPhone” and kept preserved through “YouTube”. Stunning images.
