He describes the final play of the 2005 triple-overtime triumph in New Haven, after which he rushed from the stands, faked out a security guard, and “dance[d] on Eli??s field.”“It felt,” Walt recalls, “like glory just had sex with me.”Tim, a 2006 graduate, describes his final Game experience in similar, if not so colorful language.
