Spring Game Oscars

Ramblings from yesterday's spring game:

Good Samaritan Award

Kudos to the staff members at Dodd Hall, who each year bring some of their patients over to the spring game. You can find their group on the A deck walkway down towards the locker room. They were there again Saturday and seemed to be having a grand time. It is a nice gesture that the staff gives of their Saturday to do this.

The Bling Award

The Oscar for the most metal goes to the gentleman I met in A deck on the southwest corner of the stadium. He had to have more than 100 different OSU pins proudly covering his Buckeye hat. "It gets a little heavy by the end of the third quarter," this die hard fan confided to me. I could imagine. (Even so, wish I had one!)

Best License Plate

Seen on a license plate in the Bill Davis Stadium lot.... simply "OSUNUTZ". Nothing unusual there, except that it was on a blue plate issued by "that state up north". Stuck my business card in the driver's window of that one. Anyone that cruises around north of the border with that on their car has to be okay and may have a story.

Funniest Quote

Son Curt leaning over to me and remarking (affectionately) on Coach Tressel in his Hawaiian Shirt...."Next thing you know we'll be calling him Pete Carrol!"

Grand Prize - Best Tee Shirt Award

This years Grand Prize goes to the wearer of the best tee shirt. "I'm too pretty to go to Michigan" adorned the front of the shirt of one young lady. She most definitely was. (Although the bar is just not real high on that one!)
