Being an OU fan is tough here in Kansas City. The prevalence of KU propoganda is disheartening. As you sports fans now know, KU has won their first NCAA Basketball Tournament in 20 years. As such, there was much celebration in and around Kansas City. Including the place I work.
(Clicky for larger.)
Some people are happy to display some small memento such as a license plate.
Some people need more elaborate decoration such as posters, memorabilia plaques, and...
Yes, that is a coaster, folks. A coaster in the shape of a folding chair.
The best to see, though, are those that don body gear. The most prolific of these has been stickers such as these.
Surprisingly, T-shirts, like the following, were NOT as prolific.
This last picture is of a more permanent form of body gear. That's right, kids, these otherwise cute little toes have been defaced with the colors and letters of KU. (I must admit some fault here. When requesting permission to post this picture, I referred to them as 'KUte little toes'.)
The most interesting aspect of this whole ordeal has been the LACK of participation, though. As many people that claim to be big-time KU fans, I thought I would have somewhere near 20 pictures or more to post, but I have only six. As you can see, some of these are from the same perpetrator.
I guess I can't really complain. I haven't replaced my OU flag that was destroyed early last year. I need to get one before football season starts again, though. And, don't worry, folks. I will not be getting my toenails painted in crimson and cream. Although, if I did, rest assured, you would see them here.
GO SOONERS!
