GAMEDAY… Texas

I’m taking photos now. Kind of a big deal.

Anyway, I have one left over from San Jose State - I think - when Wally Judge was visiting:

Got to the Stadium a little early, thanks to Bob Lutz - don’t ask. I dunno, call me crazy - and trust me, I’ve been called worse - but I dig burnt orange. It’s a little more versatile than some of the other colors you find within the Big 12. Really looks good on chicks, too, if you’re into that kind of thing.

Anyway, here’s more of my artwork:

Love the sightlines at Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium…

Have to love Bevo, which got me thinking. Why doesn’t K-State have an actual Wildcat? Hey, a guy can only take so much of Willie. Levi informed me that K-State did, in fact, have a live a real wildcat named “Touchdown” as early as 1922. But this takes the cake - the mascot then turned into a black Labrador named “Boscoe” that appeared at baseball and football games.

OK, a couple of things:

1. Levi found that information here.
2. Boscoe? What is that? Seriously?
3. Trap a wildcat. Please. Have Tim Weiser, who just happens to be a outsdoorsman, handle it. That’s what great athletic directors do…

One more picture…

That JumboTron or whatever the locals call it here is a monstrosity. Good Lord, it’s big.

    Put a barc-o-lounger in front of that tv, give me a remote & i would be in heaven. J-Mart my “I got 5″ with The Man may have been incidiary, but that is what people want to know, the other stuff was just fluff.

    Get some hotties from your little crows nest jmart.

    I’ve always said we should have a real wildcat attack and kill a live prairie chicken or prairie dog at midfield before games.

    Is Whitlock down there?

    how does the texas media feel about the game Jmart? worried at all? how’s the vibe? Are their press boxes a million times better than ksu’s?

    Haven’t heard a word on or seen Josh Moore.

    Texas media? Well the cover of the student newspaper’s gameday insert was simple, just a picture of the KSU fans storming the field last year with the title in the top right corner of “THEY’RE HERE”. I wouldn’t say anybody is “worried”.

    The press box is great. A ton of hi-def TVs spread out to watch the early games. The stadium renovations here are excellent (check tomorrow’s Wildcat Report).

    No Whitlock.

    Last I knew… we still have a wildcat. I believe it lives at Sunset Zoo. Touchdown IX, I think. We stopped bringing him to the games because of how it affected the cat.

    we do in fact have a touchdown at the zoo.

    you might think a KSU beat writer would know this.lol

    JMart get the aspca to let us and i am sure they would consider bringing him to the games again.

    if memory serves they had to drug him to keep from breaking the cage and killing everything in his path.

    luckily they do not drug our defense who loves to drop the hammer on colt’s and steers!!!!!

    GOCATS!!!
