One Oregon State Football tradition that I am just now getting acquainted with is Sunday "Victory Wings." On Sundays after a win, Training Table apparently doesn't grade foods by the red, yellow, green light system and they serve up some pretty amazing chicken wings, a.k.a. "Victory Wings" Yes, I'm sure you're thinking...but wait, the Beavers didn't win this week! You're right, but the lovely staff at Training Table stated "the Athletic Trainers didn't lose the game, so why should they be denied the wings?" So they brought down a whole pan of wings to the Athletic Training room today after treatments. Ha! I brought a big serving home to Zeb, and I don't think I would be exagerating when I say that they changed his life. He basically went into a coma when I gave them to him. The following is a text message exchange with a co-worker more experienced in dealing with Victory Wing Induced Coma.Me: So I gave Zeb the wings & he went into wing coma. He is completely unresponsive, just keeps shoveling wings into his mouth with a great big grin on his face. Is that normal, or should I take him to urgent care?
Co-Worker: That is absolutely normal. Treat with Bud-Light & a shoulder rub. He should come around in about 15 mins. Football can be used in place of shoulder rub.
As you can see in the picture I got him a dose of Bud-Light & it worked like a charm. I believe a direct quote from Zeb during his shoulder rub was "This is what heaven must be like."
Sorry for the blogging absence, more posts to come this week!
