| One of the certainties in space time continium is that
when something goes wrong, it is someone’s fault and lord knows it can’t
be the actual football team, right?. This year, Penn State lost it’s Homecoming
game to Minnesota, 24-23, on a last second field goal. This likely ruined
Penn State’s national championship bid. The "winner" wins the inaugural
"Purple
Clown Award," a joint presentation of Yurasko.net and Brad Stratton's
MulchNet.

The candidates, in alphabetical order:
Dawn Barger - Rover. Dawn promised a student ticket to William
and then weasled out. She wound up going, it was her first game (see Tom
Harrison) too. It's like someone rolled snake-eyes. Could this be responsible
for this upset?
Alf Microphone - Since 1995, it has been known in the Penn State
community that everthing is his fault. However, he graduated, so maybe
that is no longer true. You decide. nickname used to protect true identity.
The Homecoming Queen - I kept running
into her over the summer on Capitol Hill, she was a Republican intern,
I was a Democratic intern, so there was a bit of rivalry. It's pretty obvious
that her coronation upsets the balance of the force, but is it enough to
sway victory to the Golden Skunks (Gophers)?
Wally Richardson - The much maligned Wally Richardson is, in
retrospect, the second-best quarterback Penn State has had in the 1990s.
However, we never appreciated him and blamed him for everything. Maybe
we should be blaming Kerry Collins, who was introuduced on the field during
the game.
That Stupid Minnesota Skunk mascot - That stupid grin, that oversized
head that could turn 360 degrees, its obvious that Satan himself is in
that suit. You know that this is the Willard Preacher's choice. |
