    I've got no horse in this race, but that really made me laugh.

    Yeah? Well, you line up behind the right horse, or YOU'RE in the can next, mister.

    This was the second post on the thread, sir.
    This is where I took part in the free food argument. And no, I won't personally attack you back even though you admitted you were personally attacking me. What gives?

    Please show me where prior to this that anyone mentioned free food?

    The Rose Bowl held a media reception at the ESPN Zone from 5-8 p.m. PDT on Dec. 31. That's where people got sick. And it wasn't just Penn State people. And (not that this should matter), the food was free.

    Won't be the first time ESPN made media members vomit.

    Hope everyone gets better. Can't wait to read the roll call of the afflicted later today.

    Nice ad for how good ESPN Zone's food is. And I eat there sometimes when I'm in a city that has one.

    All I can think of is the Daffy Duck cartoon where he says "easy, stomach... don't turn over now..."

    Several years ago, at the Monday Michigan Media luncheon before a Michigan-Ohio State game, several members of media got food poisoning from the hotel/restaurant that hosted the event each week.
    I'm talking violently ill -- one then-assistant SID was in the hospital for a couple of days -- from the mayo.
    Slappy escaped, but to this day, Slappy won't take mayo from a mass-consumption sandwich spread...

    Fredrick, be very careful when you toss around banning suggestions. You may not like the results.
    Moderator1 doesn't like such bullshit. Neither does Webby, Gutter, playthrough, Elliotte Friedman, Flying Headbutt, Trooper Bari, BigRagu or anyone else on the management team.

    And, dear fellow posters, just because ONE member acts like an asshole doesn't give the rest of you the right to jump in. Some of you don't learn yer lessons very good, does you?

    The one Rose Bowl Moderator1 covered, the food was amazing. Endless. Great variety. All free. And I didn't get sick.
