Great Bobcat Spirit!

For the first time in nearly a decade the Ohio University Bobcats are going to take on the Ohio State University Buckeyes in a spectacular football game at Ohio Stadium.

The Ohio University Alumni Association's Central Ohio Chapter invited me and a few other media types to emcee a Pep Rally at the Lodge Bar in the Arena District. Hundreds of Bobcat fans were there... including current OU President Roderick McDavis and legendary former President Vernon Alden (the man for whom the library is named). The Alumni Varsity Band rallied the troops with stirring fight songs and the "Poo Toss" gave Bobcat fans a chance to take out some pent-up frustration on the overconfident Ohio State University.

As President McDavis said, "We're here to kick some Buckeye butt!"

A great time was had by all!

GO BOBCATS!



Remember... we are Ohio... you are State!
