[QUOTE="Forget Favre, post: 405000, member: 2006"] I just found out this interesting bit of trivia I wanted to share with you which is a Tampa Bay/Wisconsin connection. Beloit College is located on the Wis/Ill border and it's also where Jim Caldwell, coach of the Colts is from. As well as me. [COLOR=#000000][SIZE=13px][FONT=Arial]Beloit College ’s logo, a Buccaneer head, caused a nationwide stir in the mid 1990’s when we battled the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the NFL for the rights to use the logo. Beloit’s president at the time, Vic Ferrall, offered to play Tampa Bay in a football game for the rights to the logo. Eventually, Tampa Bay backed off and later changed its logo to the current one it now displays on its helmet.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR] [IMG]http://thedigitalnp.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Beloit-College-Logo.jpg[/IMG] [url]http://www.beloit.edu/bucs/recruitme/didyouknow/[/url] [/QUOTE]
