Civil War showdown
Saturday, November 29, 2008
Saturday marks a big day for Oregon College football and we have our share of rivalries in the gym. Katie showed her Beaver spirit by coming to class in true fan fashion, face paint and all. In all honesty she did it on a dare that Nathan threw down and he now owes her a week of free classes. The duck contingency showed a little more restraint but showed strength in numbers by handing out hats and recruiting support on the spot. Good luck to both teams.
Go Beavers! Go Ducks!
