Good news! We don't have to wait a year!

Granted, it only took eight days for K-State administration to respond to the story everybody knew about. But, I have to say the first line made me chortle (because people just don't chortle enough anymore).

Seriously, why even bother saying things like, "The University has a long-standing policy that considers live animals (except guide animals) at athletics events to be contraband." And, "These acts cannot and will not be condoned or tolerated."

Obviously, K-State and has been turning a blind eye to the tradition for years. If they really wanted to crack down on students bringing chickens into Bramlege Coliseum... it would not be that difficult. How do you smuggle in chicken without looking obvious? In your pants? Anybody have any experience?

I'll be interested to see next year's KU at K-State game... but I fully expect to have another picture like we did only a week ago.
