I vote this one ^
It's 5 o'clock somewhere, & Michigan still sucks
A few years back when Gameday came to Columbus for OSU/PSU the weekend the Cam Newton/pay-for-play thing broke, I proudly displayed an "Our quarterback plays for free" sign with Terrelle Pryor's smiling face front and center. Ugh, hindsight is 20/20. I was on tv all day though, so tie?

^^^ THIS!!! By far!!!!!
Does anyone know if it's easy to sneak in signs like that? I've never been to Gameday but I will go whenever they finally come back to Columbus
I don't know, but whenever they come to C-Bus I'm printing off this image and having it blown up and made into a sign. My a** will get as close to that stage as possible.
You can get one in easy enough but they have staff in the crowd that will ask you to take it down if it's too over the top.
Although this one is great, we're looking for new ideas. We should have done a better job of spelling that out.
Fair enough. In case mine did win, I was going to email one of you about giving the gift card to an original sign idea.
^^^^ that's awesome!! To see that on tv....priceless!
An angry fan...rooting for an angry team...led by angry coaches
while I love the idea, this is pretty clearly shopped.
No. This actually happened. I remember watching it live last year.
Must be a bad screencap or at least touched up to enhance, because the pixel count looks way higher on the sign as opposed to the others. The edge blurring is typically indicative of PS also...I'll take your word for it though.
I can see how it looks shopped, I just remember watching GameDay with some buddies last year and absolutely pissing myself when this came on the TV.
@A9entsmith, That look you see I think is the netting or screen that is around the on-air guys protecting them from the crowd. It creates a different look like the things behind it are almost discolored.

Sorry Urban, Woody is still my favorite
I'd like a pic of OSU corn hole boards at every campus they hit!
As far as the perfect sign...put Urban in the Braveheart getup except w/scarlet and gray face paint, of course.

No doubt. Love this site.
Thank you. I'm sure longtime readers will understand how rare it is for us to put something like this on the front page, but when offered a $300 shopping spree for one of our readers, we're going to consider things like this.

The rest of the poem, though it probably wouldn't fit on the sign:

Ugh, no. C'mon, don't be that guy.
No, he really was that guy. Ugh.

Oh come let's sing Ohio's praise
And songs to Alma Mater raise
While our hearts rebounding thrill
With joy which death alone can still
Summer's heat or winter's cold
The seasons pass the years will roll
Time and change will surely (truly) show
How firm thy friendship ... OHIO!
Or...
Just win, baby!

Suck it.

This would be a great GameDay sign.
I've been creeping around 11W for two years now collecting Buckeye news and reading your comments. What finally makes me sack up and post? A chance to win dinero! Ridiculous I know, but I'm hoping this will just be the first of many. Oh and the helmet sticker idea sucked me in too. Who doesn't want helmet stickers?!
My sign:
Remember this man, Michigan State. He'll be in your backfield so much that people will think he's on your team. But you'll know the truth.
"I don't know where I'm at, but it better not be f***ing Mi***gan!"
"Florida...where Ohioans go when they are no longer productive."
To err is human. Really sucking requires having yellow stripes on your helmet.
Or...
"Florida...where Ohioans go when they are no longer reproductive."
That's how I read that the first time.
Brian Hartline disagrees with your statement.
"I like to kick Michigan's ass and chew bubble gum, and I'm all out of gum."

^^^Ok - I'm gonna have to say - why would anyone down vote this? This is what worries me a bit with the down voting. If you don't like the idea for the sign, don't vote for it - but there is nothing offensive, political, or any personal attack of any sort here - it's just a sign idea someone wrote...no reason at all to down vote this. Just saying...

Think there is a disgruntled ttun fan trolling around.
I miss the Other Tall Blonde Chick
Are we Brothers? NO. NEXT QUESTION
I know there's a game saturday, and my ass will be there.
^^^These two. Brady Hoke and The Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. Bret Bielema and Slimer. We'll have to go from the Buckeyes to The Ohio State Ghostbusters.
"I don't know where I'm at, but it better not be f***ing Mi***gan!"
The classic Pete Venkman "Kind of a sissy isn't he?" speech will be running through my head whenever they pan to his mug on the sidelines tomorrow.

This is weird, Hail. It's like with UM's bye week, and our playing of your most hated "divisional" rival, it's almost as if we've entered into some kind of uneasy truce haha.
Yep, the divisions have screwed it all up. Not to mention, I don't think my sign idea of Sparty squatting over a pile of steaming Buckeyes would have really flown around here.
Those who stay will be CHAMPIONS!

If you put it up man, I'll upvote it for its "creative comic troll" value alone.
