NOW THAT'S A TAT:

Howdy everyone, this is Matt Murphy. Here is a project we all can enjoy. Go to this website and read the directions:

http://www.everydayshouldbesaturday.com/2011/4/11/2104220/the-edsbs-annual-fundraiser-lets-make-orson-get-a-tattoo

Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to donate money to this worthy charity in the amount of a college football game that makes you happy and/or involved the destruction of a hated rival. If the total amount donated reaches $50,000 in a set time-frame, the site's proprietor has to get a tattoo.

For example, if you're a Nebraska fan and you want to commemorate the 1995 Orange Bowl, you would donate $24.17. You go to the link at the Every Day Should be Saturday website, click on one-time donation, check the option that allows you to choose your amount, type it in, and go the next page, where you fill in some info. At the bottom of that second page, you want to pick the SPECIAL EVENT tab and, next to it in the details area, put EDSBS/[YOUR SCHOOL], so they know who is doing it. Underneath that, you can write "NA" in the address box so they won't send you stuff (you do have to put your address down earlier for the billing, though).

Here is a post I made calling out Colorado fans. I don't normally trash talk this badly on Internet forums, but since the intention is to goad Colorado fans into donating to charity, I figured it was justified:

Not surprisingly, no Colorado fans have donated anything yet that I know of, but one Texas Tech fan did respond to me by donating $70.10 in honor of Nebraska's 2004 annihilation at the hands of Mike Leach. This donation is, so far as I know, the only good thing to come out of the state of Texas since the Alamo, when Texas lost.

Best to everyone,
Matt
