WHAT IF HE EATS A LEMON?
September 1st, 2014 at 6:45 PM ^
But a lime?
NO!!! They're...GREEN!
September 1st, 2014 at 7:31 PM ^
+1 Insightful
September 1st, 2014 at 4:20 PM ^
What if a doctor of questionable repute prescribed that he put the lime in the coconut?
September 1st, 2014 at 4:26 PM ^
I suspect it would relieve this bellyache.
September 1st, 2014 at 4:29 PM ^
You put the lime in the coconut, you drink 'em both together
Put the lime in the coconut, then you feel better?
Doesn't seem logical, but, doctor's orders...
September 1st, 2014 at 5:03 PM ^
Well, call me in the morning.
September 1st, 2014 at 6:35 PM ^
Great thread references---Harry Nilsson was one of my favorites back in the 70's!
September 1st, 2014 at 4:21 PM ^
Pretty soon lime becomes an orange.
September 1st, 2014 at 4:26 PM ^
fruit.
September 1st, 2014 at 4:23 PM ^
Why do limes NOT have seeds, but lemons do?
September 1st, 2014 at 4:26 PM ^
Key limes have seeds.
September 1st, 2014 at 4:42 PM ^
What about the ones that aren't key?
September 1st, 2014 at 4:53 PM ^
Well, I'd say that's the key.
September 2nd, 2014 at 2:29 AM ^
are yellow (when ripe)!
September 1st, 2014 at 4:24 PM ^
What if he just drank a sprite? 12 oz
September 1st, 2014 at 4:30 PM ^
How about chug a large Sprite Slurpee. The brain freeze would be unbearable.
September 1st, 2014 at 4:25 PM ^
the lime in the coconut?
September 1st, 2014 at 4:30 PM ^
he have to see the doctor in the morning for a massive bellyache?
September 1st, 2014 at 4:25 PM ^
I ate a lime before. I could only get halfway through it. The board would be satisfied in my opinion.
September 1st, 2014 at 4:28 PM ^
What if he eats a lemon lime?
September 1st, 2014 at 4:29 PM ^
Nice try, Brian.
#EatALemon on Twitter everyone!
September 1st, 2014 at 5:13 PM ^
You must mean 16 yr old members. Twitter is for Tweens and creepers who stalk tweens.

Can we develop some sort of compromise, like he just eats the inside of the lemon and not the rind? (But he must eat it by itself, not as part of a drink or food item)
People can suggest compromise ideas and Seth seems to me to be a reasonable and rational person to be the one to decide what is fair after reading everyone's ideas.
I will personally donate $100 to Mott if the lemon is eaten. If we go rind and everything, $200. Maybe $250 because I think that is the number that my husband's firm requires to do a match, so it's potentially $500 to Mott.
Just a thought. Get the Alumni Association to be involved and put it in their next newsletter - if the ALS bucket challenge raised 100M+, maybe we can do some sort of significant number to Mott. Thanks to LongLiveBo to the Mott idea. (I think it was him).
September 1st, 2014 at 4:32 PM ^
Put the lemon in a bucket, and dump it on his head! Brilliant!
September 1st, 2014 at 4:32 PM ^
born "the lemon challenge". Have a ball, Facebook.
September 1st, 2014 at 4:29 PM ^
What about an onion? I had two friends drunkenly challenge each other to eat whole onions. It was awesome.
September 1st, 2014 at 4:29 PM ^
September 1st, 2014 at 4:33 PM ^
of a tailgate contest that would be videod, you know with a shot of Tequila as the chaser. Could be at the Mgoblog Party plaza or in South Bend Saturday night? Not exactly sugar, but that might make the medicine go down a little easier. Just saying............
September 1st, 2014 at 4:35 PM ^
I think where this is going is that, at the end of this discussion / controversy, we will have ensured that Brian will never, ever have scurvy even if he does not drink another glass of lemonade or orange juice in his lifetime. Perhaps that is a good thing in the long run, that we have eliminated one potential issue for him.
September 1st, 2014 at 5:40 PM ^
is brian joining the navy in 1750?
September 1st, 2014 at 4:38 PM ^
That's how I get my dog to take his medicine.
September 1st, 2014 at 4:40 PM ^
I don't understand what is so horrifying about eating a lemon. I do it all of the time. Lemons are great for your health, and they taste good.
September 1st, 2014 at 4:44 PM ^
You want to get that checked out by a Doctor...
September 1st, 2014 at 5:04 PM ^
They destroy your tooth enamel.
September 1st, 2014 at 5:12 PM ^
Has nothing to do with lemons. I think it's a stubborn thing. Brian made a rash bet to show how much he knows about UM football, and now that he lost, he's trying to justify how he's technically right. It's the kind of stubbornness that that Borges showed that Brian kept calling Borges out for. But now that the light is shining on himself...
September 1st, 2014 at 6:27 PM ^
"...he's trying to justify how he's technically right."
But that's the best kind!
September 1st, 2014 at 4:43 PM ^
Brian, please just eat the damn lemon.
That's partly about just being a good sport (and really, why the hell not?) but mostly because this is going to get really old really quickly.
September 1st, 2014 at 8:36 PM ^
Going to?
September 1st, 2014 at 4:47 PM ^
a tech savvy person needs to grab the domain name eatalemon.com just in case we need it in the future.
September 1st, 2014 at 5:05 PM ^
Or do one of those "hasbrianeatenalemonyet.com" sites.
September 1st, 2014 at 4:47 PM ^
At least he created a consequence for an incorrect prediction. The knowledge just goes into hiding after an incorrect prophecy, and then we beg him to come back every year. Besides, Brian got off on a technicality.
September 1st, 2014 at 4:58 PM ^
to eat a lemon or a lime.
September 1st, 2014 at 5:00 PM ^
no he must eat a lemon
September 1st, 2014 at 5:15 PM ^
I presume he had a method in mind when he made the bet.
September 1st, 2014 at 5:41 PM ^
What if he just drinks a gin and tonic?
September 1st, 2014 at 8:47 PM ^
brian has already eaten it and posted the video to "lemonparty.org"
Hint....don't go to this site unless you really like old guys. All this talk of lemons reminded me of the time when I was duped into clicking a link to this site. Go to at your own risk.
