Party, Party, Party
In the OSU!
If there is one thing that people should know about life it would probably have to be that life is too short to not have fun. How awful would life be if you were always serious no matter what the situation or circumstance. Yeah, that would be pretty awful indeed. That is one reason why I love the athletes of the Ohio State Buckeyes athletic programs. They know when to be serious and when to have fun.
Do You Hear This?
Any Buckeyes fan know about “The Best Damn Band in the Land.” The Ohio State University Marching Band truly is incredible, fun to watch, and extremely fun to listen to. As a child I remember watching the Pride of the Buckeyes take the field at halftime during football games. I think I enjoyed watching the band perform just as much as I loved watching the game be played. My dad realized this and so we began going to more events just to watch the band.
Ohio’s Best Plays
When you think about the best players of all time there are many people that can come to mind. Some people like to think that the ones that scored the most points are the best or made the big play of the year. The best players of all time are the ones that continuously are amazing players with star qualities.
Buckeye Memories
Some of my fondest memories from my childhood feature trips with my father and uncles to watch some of their favorite football teams, particularly Ohio State since Uncle Jim is a proud alum. I would spend the entire trip in the car listening to the men rattle off stats and discuss the amazing plays from the last game we attended with so much enthusiasm that I felt like I was already at the stadium. The food was incredibly unhealthy, consisting primarily of Bugles and off brand beef jerky that left a terrible odor in the van. Every time we arrived at our destination my father would begin his history lessons on the first game played there and the best coaches of all time. I didn’t necessarily remember all of the details of his stories but they never failed to leave me astonished by the sport of football.
