Some streaks will never die. The 166 consecutive appearances of the WSU Gameday Flag, Ol' Crimson, on ESPN's College GameDay nearly came to a halt yesterday after the flag was lost in transit (somewhere in Mississippi?) on its way to Arizona.
But thanks to ESPN and the magical UPS "Express Critical" service, the Cougar flag will flew high at the GameDay set in Tucson today, the 167th week it has appeared on the show..
The story was aired on ESPN's One Big Thing Segment hosted by Scott Van Pelt (check out the video here).
