My favorite Saturday morning TV show that we always have running in the background is ESPN's College Game Day. Each week it's broadcast live from a different school. This weekend it was Nebraska's turn to host it as we geared up to take on The Ohio State University. The show started at 7:00 AM Saturday morning. The crowd started lining up the night before. I got there at 6:30 and there were a couple thousand people there. By showtime, the entire parking lot in front of the stadium was full.
GP's fraternity made their own banner the night before. It's pretty weak compared to most of the signs that were on display. One of the traditions is for people in the crowd to hold up signs. The show is worth watching just to see all the signs. There's everything from "Will you marry me?" to "Send $$ for beer and textbooks" to "Rayn Day Eats Store Bought Corn" (Day is the Ohio State coach).
I was delighted to see Archie - our mascot for Morrill Hall.
