Thought it would be fun to see what all of Bobcatattack was for Athens' famous day.

Myself:
Freshman yea (2008)-Grandma
Sophomore year-Heisman Trophy
Junior year-Chilean Miner
Senior year (2011)-Frank Solich

The last 3 got a ton of love.  The Heisman was the easiest because all I did was buy Sweat Pants and a nerf football and spray paint it all gold.  All I recall doing was striking the pose all night.  
The Chilean miner followed up the terrible mining incident where the miners were saved 30 days later.  It was fun being reunited with so many of my countrymen on Court Street.
Frank Solich was a gameday decision.  I threw on a Ohio Athletics Polo, stole my roommates Xbox live headset and threw on my dress khakis.  Only purchase was a white board and some dry erase markers.  I drew up plays on it all night.  Most of them were ridiculous trick plays.  Ran into a ton of football players who all LOVED it.  They drew up some real plays for me.  I would do this again this year for the victory lap (half year only) but I am a personal believer in the no repeat policy on HallOUween Costumes.

It must have been hard to do that and drink beer at the same time.

Twice went as the graffiti wall - dyed old jeans and a t-shirt brick red in the dorm bathroom sink (which must have made the housekeeping staff very happy), drew on mortar lines with a white grease pencil, smeared brick-red lipstick on my face and hands to match the clothes (that was a beast to remove), grabbed a Sharpie and hit Uptown and let people write all over my costume...
