Twenty six year old Shane Johnson, an Oregon Football fan, sat recently for an interview with Leuterers Sports Editor Tiger Jones. Johnson is in a test group of Oregon fans undergoing an experimental radical electro-shock therapy. The therapy seems to be working. Last week’s loss to the Beavers has already been erased from his memory.
Jones asked Johnson, “How long have you been following Oregon football?” Johnson answered, “A long time, like about five seasons now. We’ve won 163 games in a row.” The Leuterers Sports editor, somewhat skeptical of Johnson’s knowledge of Oregon football history asked him about the sign designating Autzen Stadium as “Rich Brooks Field”. Johnson scratched his head looking puzzled and replied, “Rich Brooks, yeah, like didn’t he play keyboards for the Grateful Dead?”
