    Default a REAL Thundar!!

    I remember reading on here once that we used to have a real Bison leashed up who'd stand on the sidelines and watch the game. The cheer leaders were given the responsibility of making sure he didnt take epic dumps on the visiting bench etc... But If i remember right, there was an accident where he got too excited and ran into a closed fence and DIED?? can someone confirm or deny this for a fact? I definitely read it on here waaaaay back when, and I told the story to my family today...

    BUT regardless of it being true or not...... WHY DONT WE HAVE A REAL BISON AT OUR GAMES?!? hahaha I want one soooo bad! Please tell me someone shares this sentiment!

    There is a thread about this from last year.....I hope someone can dig it up because it was awesome.
    North Dakota State, a football team the big boys of college football should avoid like the plague, helped christen a $90 million renovation to Snyder Family Stadium — including a statue of famed Kansas State coach Bill Snyder himself — by taking a sledgehammer to the place.

    I share this. Most badass thing in college football is when the very unbadass University of Colorado runs that badass named Ralphie(i think?) on the field.

    I don't care how the vote ended up. They still suck and always will.

    How about Coach Bohl riding a Bison out of the tunnel before the team runs onto the field? Might have to give him a raise though.
    Hey Barkeep, another round of the green stuff for me and my buddies!
