Random Posting for Penn State 10/27/12

Here are 4.5* (of my usual nine) Nittany nuggets from this week's game!

1.)  Woo-hoo ... White Out ... as in what may still happen in Happy Valley if Frankenstorm Sandy dumps blizzard like conditions into the "mountains" of  PA!
2.)  Woo-hoo ... White Out ... as in a familiar concept in the NCAA when it comes to the race of its head coaches!
3.)  Woo-hoo ... White Out ... as in fans were told to arrive early for a special "ultra high-resolution 360-degree photo ... an image over 12 billion pixels in size"!
4.)  Woo-hoo ... White Out ... as in the opposite of a Blue Out (as initiated last year)!
*4.5)  Woo-hoo ... what a great first half ... as in that's all I got to see because I had tickets to the Martina McBride concert!  And, truth be told, that was a much better ending point scorewise than how the game actually ended, so there's that.

In closing, (a sarcastic) thanks to the hotel in Toledo whose TV reception was almost good on most channels and really horrible on ESPN (the interference was like yet another White Out with which I had to deal) and to the programming gods for scheduling the game at such an odd time to conflict with my concert tickets ... and the countdown to our next post-season game in 2016 stands at 52 more games!

OH WELL -- AT LEAST THE PICTURE CAME OUT GREAT!:
