The civil war football game here in Oregon is one of the longest played rivalries in collage football. Here are some fun facts from the history.

In 1946, Oregon State students kidnapped Puddles, the U of O’s live mascot.

In 1960, a U of O student kidnapped Oregon State’s homecoming queen.

Starting in 1959, the winner of the Civil War game was awarded the Platypus Trophy, created that year by U of O art student Warren Spady. After being stolen and lost, as well as disinterest in the trophy, the schools are trying to revive the award and make it part of the schools’ Civil War tradition.

Hard to make it out on my phone, but is that a falcon?

Looks like some sort of raptor sitting on a human arm? I'd rather see your picture there.

Well, I've dilly dallied long enough. Time to go outside and do my morning chores.

Yep. If I had the time (and money, they cost a few thousand dollars), I'd own one... It's hard to think that half a century ago they only cost $30. They're really beautiful creatures.

I'd love to post I photo of myself, but I worry too much about Internet safety and stuff like that... The photo is a falcon on my arm.

what do you mean by internet safety?

 

[Abdulla6169]

what do you mean by internet safety?

I meant privacy... Sorry, I'm really tired. I barely slept the last few days and I've had a stressful day today. I can fall asleep any second now.

That looks like a giant insect.

to me it looks like a porcupine that was hit with the ugly stick!

 

[Yvonne G]

Notice the one very long toe nail on the back feet. I wonder what that would be used for.
