Haiku Friday: The Big Game

Haiku Friday
It’s that time again
OSU v. UoM
Quick! Hide your dumpsters!

It’s “Beat Michigan” week here in Columbus, and the city has once again gone crazy with the scarlet and gray fever. I only hope that Ohio State wins this game – and not just because I support the Buckeyes partially based on the fear of what might happen if I didn’t.

It’s also because the drunk, happy rioters setting dumpsters on fire are so much easier to deal with than the drunk, bitter rioters setting dumpsters on fire. (It doesn’t matter if we win or lose – there are always riots, and you can count on at least one dumpster fire.)

To play along for Haiku Friday, follow these steps:

1. Write your own haiku on your blog. You can do one or many, all following a theme or just random. What’s a haiku, you ask? Click here.

2. Sign the Mister Linky below with your name and the link to your haiku post (the specific post URL, not your generic blog URL). We will delete your link if it doesn’t go to a haiku. If you need help with this, contact Jennifer or myself.

3. Pick up a Haiku Friday button to display on the post or in your sidebar by clicking the button above.

So flex those mental muscles and join Jennifer and I for Haiku Fridays!

    Search for haiku at the site.

  17. Nice rivalry. However, OU/Texas has meant so much more in the past couple of decades.

  18. I have to admit, I watched about 3 minutes of the game. Then I went shopping. Stores are so nicely uncrowded in Columbus when there’s a game. : )
