Civil War Postgame thoughts


Well, that was an experience. Oregon lost the game to Oregon State, and there's nothing I can say to make that fact any less depressing. The Beavers lead the whole way. They deserve to win. Sure, the refs didn't help but as much as I think we'd all like to we can't blame a game on the refs (other than the 1972 Olympics debacle).

But, on the bright side, I did win Fan of the Game and. Oh, and seated at the VIP table right in front of me were University President Dr. Richard Lariviere, his wife, and a United States Senator(pictured). The US Senator, Ron Wyden (D-Oregon) was literally directly in front of me. He complimented my fanhood.

As a result of getting Fan of The Game, I won an AMP Energy shirt, a Mountain Dew hat, a Diet Mountain Dew shirt, and an AMP Energy hat. Oh, also, an advertisment card for Pepsi. I liked that. While everything else was a subliminal advertisement, Pepsi just handed me a card that said "Pepsi" on one side, and had their slogan on the other.

Oh, America! (but that's another post)

Oh, did I mention that the Fan of the Game promotion was sponsored by Amp Energy!

This is the first time we've posted a photo because we try and you know, follow the law. Most other blogs would link tons of photos from ESPN, but we don't own those photos. The photo of Senator Wyden is available on his website, specifically for uses like this.
