[edit] consecutive

It says he missed two bowls, can you consider him to have attended all of his games consecutively as the article states? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Girls gone docile (talkcontribs) .

It says "He watched all but two of USC's bowl games to that point". The two he missed were likely from before his streak began. -- Plutortalkcontribs 15:57, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
I've fixed it from two to one, since it appears the first was the 1923 Rose Bowl which preceded the streak, and which he is noted as having attended (the second would have been the 1924 Christmas Festival Bowl at the Coliseum). MisfitToys 17:56, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
Correct, he missed the first two bowl games which preceded the streak. His brother's streak was stopped when he couldn't go to the 2001 Las Vegas Bowl (honestly, he didn't miss much :-p ). --Bobak 17:56, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
I always thought it odd that the one bowl he missed was at the Coliseum, though it being played on Christmas Day (while he was in HS, at that) probably had something to do with it. MisfitToys 18:01, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
