Lots of buzz about the Number 1 ranked Syracuse University Orange Men’s Basketball team this year. The fans in the Carrier Dome are even crazier than normal. Remember the young fan I showed you a couple of years ago? Last weekend I attended the Big East game between the Syracuse Orange and the Marquette Golden Eagles and ran into a slightly older fan who allowed me to photograph him.

The Orange went on to win 73-66 (Sorry, Kathy!) thanks to the support of over 25,000 fans many wearing orange clothing though not many with orange wigs.

I’m thinking Otto has a lot in common with the mummers in the Mardi Gras parades. That wig looks like Cheese Curls. Between that and the beer I’m hungry.
All those different surfaces, some reflective, some, well, Cheese Curls – nice job getting all of it to come together like that.

Actually, this is not Otto. This is Otto the Orange. He’s clowning around with my Brother-in-Law at a Women’s basketball game where we had court side seats.
Now you got me hungry for some cheese curls! Will have to stop at the store later and get some.

Doing good! Could I ask you to submit this photo to Channel 9? They are looking to show SU fans. I know Ed would love it.

I saw that they did on the 6 o’clock newscast last night. Was it just for yesterday? BTW, is this Dome Eddie? I talked with him some but never got his name. D’oh!

Nope, not just for yesterday. Yes, this is indeed the infamous Dome Eddie. His real name is Ed Orlick.
