Been raised a buckeye fan by my dad (
OSU Alum 1976). But he moved out of Ohio after graduating and im stuck in PA. cant stand penn state fans...you wont know till you live around them. ive been to at least 1 buckeye game ever since the re-emergance of the bucks as a power (so i contribute their good fortunes to myself).
went to a kickoff classic in the meadowlands (forget the year) and bough a foam finger that i wore for every second of every game.....except michigan. I had a rare saturday morning basketball practice. they lost and i blame myself. the next year i wore it for every game except michigan state. i said they wouldnt need it.....boy was i wrong. i donned it for the eddie george year however and my all time favorite
OSU player (and half of the reason im buckeyenation27) won the heisman....youre welcome eddie. The finger is now retired....i dont think it has any more magic left in it. but i do take credit for the 02 NC....my brother and i both said if we won we would do naked snow angels in the 3 feet of snow that covered our football field.....and we did.
probly TMI but i had the same bet on the line for the raiders the same year and called it off......which is why they got killed in the SB.
oh.......and im slightly superstitous
