Gigi Gibbons made her first trip to Ohio State University yesterday.
But while most people were excited to see the Buckeyes take to the football field for the first time since becoming national champions, Gibbons was looking forward to something else.
“Seeing Brutus,” said the 5-year-old from Swanton, Ohio, which is west of Toledo.
Gigi; her mother, Brittany Gibbons; and her 8-year-old brother, Jude, were among the 99,391 fans who attended Ohio State’s spring football game. The turnout was a national record for a spring-game crowd.
Gibbons, an OSU alumna, was excited to bring her children to campus for the first time.
