In the 80's Sky View and Logan would play at the old Romney and have close to a sell out. They did have a sell out , I think it was 1985 or 1986 when Sky View played Mountain Crest for the State title in 3 A at the time. Mountain Crest won something like 7 to 6 I believe. It was a very boring game. I was going back to school then, and lived West of the Stadium in West Stadium Villa as it was called then! Jay Vanoy built those. We called them the 'Lambing Shed's' as nearly everyone that lived there had between 4 and 6 kids. I first lived there in Jan. of 1985 and moved when I graduated in 1989. My rent for those 3 bedrooms was $220.00 a month for the whole time I lived there. They actually were quite spacious and served us well for the 4 years we lived there. When we moved in 1985 we had 4 kids, 2 boy's and 2 girls. That May we had another boy,( my son who graduated from USU with honors in computer-electrical-engineering who just bought and built a nice home at Juniper ridge Hyde Park). Then 2 years later we had our last child there in 1987 a girl. 3 boy's and 3 girls. The friends we made there while living there have been life long friends. There were a few Iranian families that lived there and their Ramadan month of fasting and eating after midnight brought out some interesting smells during that time. The LDS Stake house to the north used to be our garden plot that USU provided us while we lived at West Stadium Villa. Our Bishop was a wonderful man and really cared about everyone! Wayne White, his son Kevin was an Aggie player at QB. Those days we were so bad at football......students wore paper bags over their heads at games. I hope we never see those days again.
