He may, but I have no ill will. Tell me you went to Arizona State though, and the conversation is over... j/k</p> <p>I went to ASU's rival U of AZ, and ended up working at ASU for a couple years. Endless teasing both ways, I feel ya! </p> <p>I do really enjoy the stories about the Wolverines and Buckeyes that fell in love, I find that hilarious! The way my husband acts, I can't even imagine that happening ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-buckeye/page/2#post-1044780 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 17:05:09 +0000 wonderstruck 1044780@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lemondrop: Oh man, your husband would not like me! I was going to comment and say that a Buckeye is someone with horrible taste in college sports, haha! I don't even watch football, but when you went to Univ of Michigan and work in Ohio...yeah, I've taken a lot of crap for that, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-buckeye/page/2#post-1044704 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 16:11:54 +0000 Bookish 1044704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaCate: ughh, try being an Aggie right now...</p> <p>And man I really want some of these buckeye chocolate doohickeys now... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-buckeye#post-1044698 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 16:09:18 +0000 lemondrop 1044698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was well trained in how to make Buckeyes by my MIL before we got married, it was a requirement. Om nom nom!</p> <p>@Mrs. Polish: LOL! I was telling my husband about this thread (hardcore Buckeye, he did 7 years at OSU... I call it remedial, he calls it a doctorate) and making fun of him like usual, he cracked up at your worthless nut comment and said at least you aren't a Wolverine ;) </p> <p>@Mrs. Yoyo: yes, college FB season is starting, sigh. My husband's "hobby" that dictates our Saturday family activities. Cue the "enthusiasm." I can relate to living the lie, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-buckeye#post-1044681 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 15:58:45 +0000 chopsuey 1044681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: omg yes, please! :D will let you know! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-buckeye#post-1043710 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 10:15:01 +0000 lindseykaye 1043710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh man we get a dozen buckeye every year for xmas from DH's Granny. They are delicious but I can only eat a couple (mostly because they are sweet, also because DH eats the rest so fast!).</p> <p>Also, my first thought when I read this thread title was about football... but I'm a Gator girl and we have our own history with Ohio ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-buckeye#post-1043692 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 10:08:32 +0000 loveisstrange 1043692@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They are amazing... you dont really need to know much more than that. lol</p> <p>But yeah, if you like chocolate and peanut butter, you'll probably like them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-buckeye#post-1043690 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 10:08:17 +0000 MrsH 1043690@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LovelyPlum: 5 days until our season starts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-buckeye#post-1043688 Mon, 26 Aug 2013 10:07:32 +0000 MrsH 1043688@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Yoyo: hey now, us wolverines are nice :) plus I'm a grad so I've got to represent ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-buckeye#post-1043086 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 22:33:25 +0000 MamaCate 1043086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LovelyPlum: It feels like a civic duty to educate the public about our weird quirks... :happy: </p> <p>but i am staying out of the football talk given the state of osu football and ncaa compliance lately. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-buckeye#post-1043033 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 21:35:45 +0000 AprilK 1043033@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just saw some buckeyes for sale in the Cracker Barrel store, so that may be an option for anyone looking to purchase some! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-buckeye#post-1042920 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 20:36:00 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 1042920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: I make a huge batch of them every Christmas - so good! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-buckeye#post-1042916 Sun, 25 Aug 2013 20:33:25 +0000 mediagirl 1042916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey: tell me when u can eat sweets again and I'll send you some.
