Rutgers is no stranger to making history—first college football game ever played, and on May 15, 1981, one of the more legendary Grateful Dead shows on the East Coast. Held at the Rutgers Athletic Center in Piscataway, the band delivered a standout set—but the moment people still talk about? A lightning storm flashing through the arena windows right as they played “Looks Like Rain.” Total cosmic timing. That night had everything: a deep “Scarlet > Fire,” a blissed-out “Eyes of the World,” and the kind of crowd that knew they were catching something special. One show, one state school, one perfect storm—literally. This collection is a nod to that night and Rutgers’ place in both sports and music history. One-of-a-kind graphics, officially licensed gear, and a tribute to the fans who knew the show must go on—rain or shine.
