I love when the Buckeyes lose. I recall a time about 10 years ago when I was attending a conference in downtown Columbus. I would not be exaggerating to say that 90% of the people I saw were wearing OSU gear. I also attended a wedding of two Ohio University grads in Columbus who had scarlet and gray colors and the groomsmen were wearing red bow ties and cummerbunds. They even played “Hang on Sloopy” as a wedding dance. When they send Christmas cards, the whole family is wearing OSU gear. Completely sick.
I was at a Bobcat wedding on the first Saturday of the football season during the O$U/Notre Dame game, hang on sloppy was played a couple times and the DJ insisted on updating us of the score throughout the night. I was prOUd of the group I was with, however, we all were salty. Bobcat weddings are a sacred thing and this DJ from Columbus was a serious buzzkill.
My wife and I are both OU grads. We had a small COVID wedding in 2020 at Emeriti Park on campus, and then held a larger reception in Columbus in 2021.
Nearly a third of the reception attendees were OU alum, so we had the Bobcat flag flying and all sang "Stand Up and Cheer" near the end of the evening!
