Title: Texas Tech Bellringer
Post by: k4kyv on November 19, 2007, 11:17:15 AM
Imagine this. You just came to Texas Tech University as a freshman. You get the opportunity to make it big time as the football team's "BELL RINGER" during their games. Your family, friends and 15 million ESPN viewers see you on a Saturday telecast ringing the team's bell.

But to your family, friends and 15 million ESPN viewers you DO NOT APPEAR to be ringing the team's bell...

Thanks for posting that Don!

I spent 3 years at Tech in the Ph.D. program but only got a chance to attend one football game-though I did get to attend roughly 100 dust storms >:(   I also found time to go through the library's excellent collection of old QST's, Radio and Television News, etc.  There is a GOOD reason why I shoot all of the family still photos and videos-it guarantees I won't get caught looking foolish and is far funnier when it is someone else caught in that spot.
