Fanthropology (Orson): on M-OSU
Orson was at the Game last weekend. I don't believe you can embed the SBNation vids so here's a target="_blank" link.
Important bits:
- Necessities of a Buckeye tailgate: Case of Bud Light, Four Loko
- Michigan in 3 words according to Buckeyes: "Horse farm mustache." I've worked on a farm and I don't know what that means.
- What is a Florida guy doing without a coat?
- Archie Griffin remembers getting hit really hard.
- Don't worry Ace, nobody knows who their MLB is either.
- There's a barbershop quartet.

That last bit really hurt my heart, Swindle.

Hoke eats no pizza until the game is over.

Spencer Hall asking the OSU fans under the propane heater, straightfaced, "(s)o was the loss in the Gator Bowl worth missing the BCS Championship Game? Because Jacksonville's beautiful." (The response? A disgruntled "This interview's over.")

I watched the video for about fifty seconds and closed the window. I know "hate" is a strong word, but I sincerely hate everything about the buckeyes. There is not ONE thing that I can say is even somewhat neat.

Big Nut was weird, wanting to have Braxton Miller's baby. Buckeye Man was actually knowledgeable

At the end when the crowd is cheering the final score I can't help but notice the guy proudly showing his middle digit. Stay classy ohio.

...how about when he asked the 3 female Buckeye fans to describe Michigan fans. The girl drops the P-word (I'm on a work laptop). Classy chick. Stay classy, Ohio.

I'm stuck in bucknut country, my Number 1 favorate thing to do when an Ohio fan that doesn't know me goes: "You're a Michigan fan!?" is to watch their face go from flabergasted, to astonished to "yeah, he's right" when I answer: "Yeah, because I have class."
They NEVER have a response to it because they all know how horrible most of their bretheren are.
Stay classy Ohio!

"Take that, SEC fans. That's dedication. They're misappropriating emergency vehicles up here"

I watched it and my comments on it are as followed.
- Big Nut < Buckeye Guy. I've had the fortune to talk to both of them while waiting in line for basketball games and Big Nut is annoying to talk to. Moreover, he can be a dick at times.
- I enjoy the Michigan fans making fun of Hoke. Good to see, OSU fans aren't the only one who take the oppotunity to make fun of Hoke.
- Who wears tennis shoes with a fur coat?
- Four Loko is not what it use to be...

Buckeye Guy seems all right. Big Nut ... there's just something creepy about him. I think maybe it's the stickers proudly displayed on his cervical pannus.

As to your second point, a true Michigan fan would know the answer to the question about how much pizza Hoke would eat would be "none" because Hoke doesn't eat until after the game.
Also, it's a good thing Elaine Benes isn't an OSU fan.

"Well we can presumably tell he's a Michigan because he's wearing Michigan gear... and he has a job." Best line of it all. Sums it all up.

That's rich coming from an "SEC" fan....whatever that means.

Heh, that picture was about 20 yards from where I was tailgating. I even remember the fan in the photo. Also, Brock Mealer was at my tailgate, but I was too shy to say anything other than "if any of these OSU clowns give you trouble, let me know. I got your back." to him. * 100% Certified Cool Bro Story™*
