    Default Bison Football is like a Great Microbrew

    Today in a meeting, a couple of people asked me how the Bison did this weekend, so I mentioned we had a bye week. One person asked "North Dakota State? Football? Really?" So I said, "People who know college football know the Bison."

    It hit me: the Bison are like a high-quality, small production microbrew. We're the best microbrew out there. Not known by everyone, but for those who really know beer--hey, here we are.

    So, let Alabama be Budweiser, and Clemson be Miller. Colorado can have Coors. We'll just be great, and loved by people who know what it's really about.

    Nice Analogy... and I agree -- true football aficionados know exactly what is going on at NDSU... it's way better to have their respect than some fan who buys their gear at Walmart

    And the fanbase provides a strong nutty finish with subtle bitter undertones.

    Where may I acquire a six-pack of this fine beer you speak of?

    Personally, I am glad our beer has grown exponentially since the CoyoteVision days as broadcast live from Vermillion. Those were some tough days for us that can only stream online to see the Bison.

    And only pompous ass hole hipsters with man buns order you at the bar and then they sip it slowly and talk about many important things they are working on.
