So, I had what I feel could be a rarity yesterday afternoon.......... I drive Uber a couple of days a week and get a pick up at South halls on campus. The name pops up as Gavin. I think as I am driving to the pick up address,"nah, won't be him ?". Well, it was Teasdale, RBY, and Teske heading to Rec Hall for their 1st practice as PSU students.(Summer classes start today). How cool was that ?!!!! Having to meet 1 4 Timer is fantastic but, 3 of them all at once ? Plus, they were "trapped" in my car. These guys were talkative,polite,and just nice guys to talk with. They were excited to be on campus "officially" and were asking all kinds of questions and I was very happy I was able to answer them. I told them.........PSU wrestlers ride for free with me and I don't think they believed me ? their fare was happily refunded. Needless to say, the rest of my day was great !!
3 4 Timers

South Halls must be further away from Rec Hall than I remember...
Anyway, it's cool that you got to meet them.

Yeah, not really that far and do the Loop Buses not run during the summer?
And you didn't even ask them who is going to go at what weight and who is shirting? You had the inside track to be a legend on this board!
I wouldn’t be offering too many freebies attached to that comment
South is pretty much as far as the dorms can get... but Cael would probably rather see them jog it...LOL..
Very interesting but if you end up taking Bo and Cassar to Wendy's I'd appreciate a heads up.
Oh boy, Vodka has something else to investigate
You know that call has already been made. I may have to make a trip to HR land to see if a thread has popped up yet.
I did think about that. but then I mentioned to them that I wasn't going to ask any "team questions" and risk them getting their butts chewed out by Coach Cael......... they all laughed at the thought.
You couldn't manage to get Cael, Dake & Steiber in the same cab ride the week before?

Or the Green Bowl (all you can eat).
What happened to Vod? Been absent since Spencer caught him lurking in the sauna.
He's going undercover as a recruit hoping that Cael will offer him the "slush fund package" so he can go public with it.
The Blue Loop M-F, 4:45am-10pm during the summer. Obvious evidence of the slush fund in action that our wrestlers have the Benjamins to spring for Uber rides instead of taking the Blue Loop.
Yeah. In the old days that would have been a walk. The times. . .they are a changing (as the song goes).
Why didn't you tell them the fare was free if they could get 2 out of 3 takedowns against you? And hey! What about some pics?
I should kick myself in the a_ _ for not taking a selfie with them. Hindsight is 20/20. Or more accurately, I was so involved ( and excited) in the conversation, I never thought of it........... my bad !!!!!! Although, I will say, they would have been open to it cause when they got out of my car, they were set upon by a bunch of younger wrestlers that were on break outside of Rec Hall from their wrestling camp. The 3 4-timers were very happy to accommodate the selfie requests.
He's deep undercover and working with the FBI investigating the legality of offering free Uber rides to student athletes. He's going to blow the lid off this scandal
On the same page.South Halls must be further away from Rec Hall than I remember...
Maybe it's the norm for kids these days, but unless there was some extenuating situation, I wouldn't even consider an Uber from South Halls to Rec Hall.
haha. was about to tease you for the same thing. as my kids would say, "a pic or it didn't happen."
could've been a classic pic (especially later on) to see that pedigree all crammed into your car.

Lol, but actually I am pretty sure he caught the ban hammer. Though could he be back under a new name?

Cab? What, are you from the 80’s?!
Wait, who called shotgun? Gotta be an alpha dog in that group right?
Oh boy! South Halls - do I have a good one to tell there. When I was at Penn State, the Tri Delt sorority had the best looking women on campus and they were housed in the South Halls. (Is it still this way?) Now I had the major fortune of having a good childhood friend who was also one of the Tri Delts so I was pretty much welcome to drop in any time I wanted. So one time I went there and went to my friend's room and the door was wide open. I just walked in and her gorgeous roommate was standing there butt naked! I got out a somewhat garbled apology and turned around and walked out. However I will confess that I did hesitate to gawk for a second or two. Needless to say, I was a little more cautious after that about entertaining a co-ed's room unannounced.
This is as good a place as ever to link a clip from Private School starring Betsy Russell (nsfw)

The Tri-Delta chapter at PSU was shut down in 2009 due to hazing and "risk management" allegations. The banned Tri-Delts morphed into "Trilogy", a "female campus organization" that is not recognized by the IFC. However, Trilogy is active in the PSU Greek scene, and I presume still has some fine looking ladies.
On this particular day, Mr.Teasdale rode shotgun and definitely was the Alpha dog. He was the most talkative,asked the most questions,etc.
Makes sense, being the PA kid with some local knowledge gets you some Instant cred.
I thought all the wrestlers who live in dorms were in West.
Also, when I was in school, there were certain groups of young women I found most attractive too. Now as an old ass man, it seems they've pretty much all become impossibly beautiful. Such is life...
What's wrong with the word cab?
I know cabs still exist, but, despite a late start, I only uber now. They are awesome in NYC, you know in advance how much it will cost.
Plus I was trying to be funny, which your smiley showed you got!
