First of all, I didn't even know Ohio State had a 'Welcome Week'.  I just remember being dropped off in front of Stradley Hall along with hundreds of other semi-lost 18 year olds, with a buch of dudes trying to sell me a compact refrigerator. 
And the only reason I even knew of this event, 98.7's (Los Angeles Alt Rock Station) DJ was poking fun of USC and UCLA today on the radio.  Saying how cool Ohio State was in doing this and that he must have gone to the wrong college.

Well played Ohio State.
