RIP CALRU66

[rutgersal_rivals139582]

One of our most finest and humble posters ever, Rolf Rudestams ashes were spread over Rutgers Stadium many years ago, from an airplane. Aka CalRU66. Last met him for a game, and then we went for dinner. There he told me, he didn’t have long, and that his ashes were going to be spread over Rutgers stadium from an airplane. He passed soon after. His obituary reads November 27, 2011.

He would have been thrilled to see Rutgers in the Big 10, and playing UCLA and USC. Think of him when I go to games. RIP CALRU66.

Something in the Temple thread reminded me of Rolf.

Did the family have to get permission to do this? I thought you just can't scatter them wherever.

I wouldn’t broadcast it.

It's now being reported that Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead.

My friend scattered his father’s ashes on Amen Corner at Augusta during the Masters. Was able to seek them in.

I fertilized the president's lawn during Senior Week, did not ask permission.

I'm just not sure why you would post this now. Weird.

Cal was a great poster. His command of the english language was unsurpassed. Whether it was RU sports or life at Big Bear Lake, he made it an interesting read

Absolutely! Loved him.

Was a real pleasure meeting him a couple of times.

One of these days I need to track this down:

I wonder what he would have to say about the NIL era. Probably nothing good.

No one from that era would like NIL. He came to Rutgers on a football scholarship.

It’s never too late to remember a great poster.

The man was a gem. We shared a lot of the same interests and communicated occasionally by email on mostly Rutgers topics, including a letter to McCormick to try to get him to reverse the unwarranted firing of Bob Mulcahy back in 2008, and it was a real gut punch when he died so young.
