Yes, you heard me right. I attend THE Ohio State University but am not a fan of football. Crazy right?How can someone born and raised in Ohio not learn to love the game? I definitely appreciate just how big of a deal OSU football is (I even have season tickets), but people are definitely shocked when I say that I am not a football fan.
1. People are confused why you bothered to get season tickets.
Just because I don't like football doesn't mean I don't love the atmosphere!
2. Everyone is shocked when you don't know who *certain* players are.
I honestly do not pay attention. Their helmets are covering their faces half the time anyways.
3. You always make sure to turn the away games on...even if you're not necessarily watching it.
I can genuinely say I've "watched" every game this year, even if it was on in the background while I was doing homework.
4. If you forget that there was a game, you still make sure to check the score so you're in the loop.
On the off chance that I'm not watching like in #3, you can bet I'll at least look up the score so I won't get weird looks at classes the next week.
5. Your parents always start your conversations with "did you see the game?"
Yes, yes I did. I was there actually.
6. You're mainly there for the band anyways, tbh.
After all, it is the best damn band in the land.
Don't get me wrong, Ohio State football is great, but there are also many other things it offers. For now, though, I'll be cheering on the Bucks every Saturday just like every other student.
