Awesome = College GameDay setting up on the campus quad today.
Not awesome (from a school standpoint) = My inability to focus on anything besides Saturday.
A view of the GameDay set from the Knight Library. At this point, the "O" hanging from Lillis was only half-completed.
- When I emerged from class an hour later, the “O” was finished.
- A view from the other side of the set, where the fans will stand.
- I have my doubts about how visible the “O” will be on TV Saturday, but it’s going to look awesome on campus for the next few days.
It’s probably good that I have (so far) failed in my attempts to win the lottery. Otherwise, I would think a fire-retardant bomber filled with orange paint, dropping its load on the quad Saturday AM would be a perfect way to spend $10 or $20 thou.
Darrell, the least I can say is that I admire your creativity.
