More proof that Columbus, Ohio is the center of the Universe .. this was in this week's S.I. - awesome!!
Not only did the Ohio State Buckeyes hockey team show so much grit and determination in two come-from-behind, overtime victories en route to their title game with the two-time defending champion Michigan Wolverines — this year's Buckeyes also had some superfreaky mojo going after the 4-2 title win.
This year's Buckeyes had Rick James on their side.
After beating Michigan, the Buckeyes did something decidedly atypical. Rather than disappear into the quiet of the night, the dazed and happy Bucks returned to their hotel in Detroit's Renaissance Center and celebrated — briefly — with family and friends. They made straight for the hotel bar, where players of age sipped their allotted single adult beverage, underage players held soft drinks, parents and families, coaches, fans — OSU and otherwise — and a few unsuspecting hotel guests mingled.
When the bar made to close early — as hotel bars often do — funk singing star James intervened, unwilling to see a victory party come to an untimely end. The bar stayed open, James had his picture taken with the CCHA playoff champs surrounding the Mason Cup, then raised his glass and said, "Ohio State! And I'm Rick James, bitch!"
The celebration continued for another hour, and everyone agreed that Mr. James was all right.
Superfreaky indeed.
