#TBT - Ohio University Mascot Fight

September 9, 2010. Ohio University Bobcats @ Ohio State Buckeyes. Nothing inspires college pride like watching your school mascot (Ohio) beat up the unsuspecting mascot of the larger state school (Ohio State) that everyone confuses you for. When I'm outside of Ohio, the convo goes like this:

Me: I went to Ohio University
Them: Oh, I've heard of Ohio State. I have a friend who went there
Me: That's not the school I went to, but okay

If the mascot fight makes you laugh, here's another angle:

Throwback: Ohio University Mascot Beats the Hell Out of Ohio State Mascot

I had to bring this back because DON'T YOU EVER FORGET IT. Five years ago, OU played OSU in an early season football game. Before the match began, Rufus the Bobcat attacked and beat the shit out of an unsuspecting Brutus the Buckeye.
