Purdue University's eStadium is revolutionizing football games just like TiVo revolutionized TV-watching habits. All Boilermaker fans need to do is head to the home games with cell phone—and foam finger—in hand.

This year's new-and-improved eStadium—it was first launched in 2001—lets Purdue game-goers watch instant replays from six different angles on their cell phones. It also lets them search for videos of certain players or certain plays. And that's in addition to older features, like accessing current game states, scores of other games in play, and player and coach statistics; playing trivia games; and, some would say most importantly, locating the nearest food vendors. Plus, it's all free of charge.

So don't worry about missing a game-winning touchdown if you go to the game, you can watch it six-different-times over once you finish doing the wave.
