We have an unhealthy obsession with the inflatable secondary mascot for Nebraska, “Li’l Red.” Sometimes he does his little palsied “dead-girl-from-The Ring” into a wormhole located in a cornfield in Nebraska and journeys through time.

Is that a burning ferris wheel? If so, that is nicely played.

No the Callahan era trip would be Lil Red going to Nagasaki. Personally, I like Herbie Husker better.

Lil’ Red: “YIPPIE! I’M A REAL BOY!” (Proceeds to board plane in Knoxville with Geppetto and Jiminey Cricket, who took a GA spot, to talk with recruits already committed to Notre Dame)

Yeh you’re right. Not enough coffee prior to viewing that, although I still like the idea of a burning ferris wheel.

No, that would be his colon. And you would end up in Detroit.
Seriously, Lil Red could be the Forrest Gump of disaster, with travels thru Nazi Germany, on the Titanic, San Francisco Earthquake of 89, Mt. Pinatubo eruption, the Thailand Tsunamis,
and of course,2008 Auburn Football……

Proper workout attire must be worn at all times. No boots, no jeans, and no tilted caps.
