Go Penn State!

Heading over to watch the Orange Bowl at a friend's house tonight. Probably my only friend who really enjoys college football. Nothing better on a cold, snowy, blustery night than a bowl of chili, a beer, and Penn State Football.

I'm possibly going to get tickets to go to a couple of Penn State games in the Fall. College football games are so much fun to attend. I often thought it would be fun just to show up and root for random football teams around New England.

As you may know, there is almost no football tradition in New England. Imagine going and rooting for the University of Maine, the University of New Hampshire, or even Harvard U. Woo!

Of course the only thing that matters in football is the Utah-BYU game. All else pales in comparison to that rivalry. Guess who won this year?

Song of the day, In honor of the snow and all the potholes that I drove through on the way to work today:

I'll be rooting for PSU for sure.

I went to a Penn State - Boston College game in old Foxboro Stadium in like '87. There were hoodlums all over the place stealing caps and knocking over reffreshment tables. Good clean New England fun.

I'm sorry, but the Harvard-Yale game is not Tradition? Oh I get it, sarcasm! ;)
Go Lions! I'm watching right now (Joe-Pa just got whacked in the nose by a lineman running on the field).

I'm so tired now. I stayed up to watch to the bitter end.

I'm a PSU convert. You live around PSU alumni long enough, you'll convert too.

My only problem with Penn State

1 - Blue and White colors - Same as BYU.

2 - A big pussy as their mascot - Same as BYU.

But unlike BYU PSU fans are rowdy, drinking, swearing, die hard fans who are fun to be around!
