UConn’s newest superstar - the Surfer Dude (merged)

[HuskyNan]

This is one of the many things I like about the yard. If you don't know something and make an inquiry(s), somebody here has the answer, the RIGHT answer. Thanks, RedStick. It looks like Johnathon has quickly become a crowd favorite. I love the idea of other fans coming to Gampel dressed in a similar fashion, toasting the players when they make a great play. If it catches on, expect other teams to do the same.

Spicoli was the name of a character in Fast Times ar Ridgemont High, played by Sean Penn.

Ooops. I saw that movie decades ago, but don't remember the characters as I do in some old vintage westerns I've seen.

 

[RedStickHusky]

at least it's not this guy...

It's a fun thing, BUT: sometimes it can go too far, and the TV cameras lose their focus on the game and switch to the fans instead.

This movie brings the memory of Phoebe Cates. I guess not too many people know her now...

Hes a goodluck charm...If anyone sees him, please see if we can get him to BET

 

[Ron and Vida]

Really enjoyed this fun diversion with all of you
After all what the team has endured this season I think the Dude and how well the team played yesterday is just what the Doctor ordered,

Oh, have no fear Kaizen, I do, I do.

Regarding certain things, my memory cells are still firing nicely.

 

[housekeys]

Maybe he is a relative of Joey California (aka Joey Calcaterra of the men's team?)

Sometimes?
It seems to me that the cameras are already distracted FAR too often. (as well as the commentators reports what the players mother had for breakfast when she was in 6th grade)

I think it's former MD QB Ronnie Bass, aka Sunshine (from Remember the Titans)...

Not to burst your bubble, but I think that Surfer Dude needs to get to the gym a few times before he can be compared to Pamela Anderson.

facts !!

Dude wore Ayanna's/Ray's jersey one day and Paige's the other day. What did he wear the third day?

 

[wingsfan055]

You guys have it all wrong. Thats actually David Lee Roth from Van Halen fame. He's a big UConn fan.
