Check out this asinine ad for the Big Ten Network that’s currently up on The Lantern homepage.
“ACT NOW OR YOU’LL MISS YOUR OHIO STATE GAMES”

Gee, of course, intends to change that.
In addition to yesterday’s Convocation and Buckeye Bash / Involvement Fair, Gee is expected to pop up just about everywhere he can during […]

…please, oh please let it be this one involving a flamingo, Jack Hanna, and an airport turnstile.
Jungle Jack Hanna, ladies and gentlemen.
