Ohio State Buckeye Fan

How Did The Buckeyes Become Your Favorite Team?

I'm From Ohio. My mom and dad both went to Ohio State University. My dad lived in Columbus for a long time. I lived in Cleveland. My family's back there.

Who's the Biggest Fan in the Family?

Me. My dad watches them, but I'm the biggest fan in the family. Tyler's (Nikolas) from Ohio, so we talk about it. Derk Cheetwood and his brother Drew (Max and Milo) are all from Ohio so we are all big Ohio State fans. 

Do You Get to Many Games?

No. They're in a championship game in Arizona next week so I'm going to try and go to that. Of course, I think Ohio will win but it should be a good game.

Favorite Buckeye Moment?

2002, when they won the national championship against Miami. The game against Michigan on November 18 gave me a heart attack. (Ohio State won 43-39) Ohio State and Michigan is one of the biggest rivalries in sports history, but the fact that they were number one and two in the BCS polls, that's never happened before. So it was a huge game. It was a roller coaster, but we won, thank God!

We've Heard of Your Rivalry with Texas Longhorn fan Greg Vaughan (Lucky)

Greg lost a big bet this year and he didn't live up to the second part of the bet. The first part was money and the second part was he was going to wear an Ohio State Buckeye shirt in a picture that was going to be printed in a magazine. That was our big bet.

Would You Have Done It?

I'd rather double the money bet. He tried to get me to do it last year and I said "no way was I putting on one of his jerseys - Forget it!"

Is Son Jack a Future Buckeye?

No doubt about it. He'll be playing football for the Ohio State Buckeyes. He's a big kid. Hopefully, he gets bigger and bigger (laughs)

What If He Wants To Act?

That's not going to happen!
