Chapter 1601 Longhorn, Charge!
It is very interesting to see NCAA football players coming out: all the players gather in the player tunnel, everyone inside shouting slogans to cheer, and their excited squeals can be heard from hundreds of meters away. The entrance to the tunnel is blocked by a huge paper wall with their team logo printed on it, and two rows of beautiful cheerleaders stand on both sides. When the players come out, they directly break through the paper wall and rush into the stadium through the tunnel formed between the cheerleaders.
Now the players in the tunnel are extremely excited. From the coaches to the players, they are all like chicken blood, their faces are red and their necks are thick when they shout slogans! The excitement is no less than the championship game!
Why are they so excited? Double happiness!
They'd known about Xiao Peng's visit, but no one was particularly excited yet. While Xiao Peng's presence would draw media attention and draw more scouts to their performance, as a strong team this season, they already had plenty of scouts and media attention. Otherwise, Fall wouldn't have been on the radar of professional teams. Xiao Peng's presence would benefit the school far more than the players, so the players were initially skeptical.
But when Fore told them that Vincent McMahon and Xiao Peng came to the court together today, these players were excited - if Xiao Peng had little impact on their future, then Vincent McMahon's influence was too great!
How much do Texans love WWE wrestling? Even WWE superstar Austin "The Texas Rattlesnake" was officially designated a "Texas Hero" by the state government.
Among the four "Texas heroes" in the entire history of Texas, one was a wrestler - who would believe it if I told you!
There are actually quite a few WWE players who started out as football players, like "The King" Baron Corbin, "The God of War" Goldberg, UFC champion and WWE wrestler Brock Lesnar, who also played football, and current WWE mainstay Roman Reigns. As for those who played college football, the list is countless!
Only a handful of college football players make it to the pros each year. The vast majority of the rest still have to find their own future. If you can catch his eye, then you've got a future!
And that's just the first good thing. The second good thing is: there's so much media attention on this game!
The school was really crazy to increase its influence. After confirming Xiao Peng as the special guest, they immediately notified the National Collegiate Athletic Association. The National Collegiate Athletic Association was also busy after learning about this matter. It quickly contacted ESPN to broadcast the event nationwide.
But the University Sports Association was still not satisfied: they wanted to promote rugby themselves, and seeing that Xiao Peng had a great influence in Europe and Daxia, they contacted European and Daxia TV stations and offered generous conditions of cheap broadcasting fees!
In fact, even if they don’t offer discounts on broadcasting fees, those TV stations will still purchase the broadcasting rights if they know about Xiao Peng’s broadcast!
Xiao Peng's popularity is incredibly high. After all, most people are very interested in "getting rich quick" and the "billionaire lifestyle." But Xiao Peng hasn't been on the air for a long time. Now that he's been invited as a special guest, we have to quickly promote him to boost ratings, right?
So many European countries have broadcast this event, but they are not interested in the game itself, they are interested in Xiao Peng!
That’s right, domestic TV stations were also broadcasting this event, and there were even Daxia reporters preparing to interview Xiao Peng - but they hesitated again and again and still did not interview Xiao Peng.
Damn, you guys sitting by the court, grilling skewers and drinking beer—are you treating this like a picnic or an outing? I feel like I'm embarrassed for this guy. I'll wait until the school reveals their identities...
But now, on the sports channel's online video broadcast, the people of Daxia are already laughing.
"The school must be regretting their decision: Why did they invite such a jerk as a special guest?"
"Eating skewers on the rugby field is a way to promote the development of our country's Northeast heavy industry!"
"Hahahaha. Look at how confused the foreigner looks."
"Not only are the foreigners confused, our sports commentators are also confused now. They even used excuses like 'I'm full so I can watch the game!'"
“It’s really hard for these hosts!”
“Who says it’s not…”
As a college team, even if the Texas Longhorns made it to the finals, they wouldn't have received so much media coverage! Seizing this opportunity could potentially lead to fame! Even if they don't, it'll still add a nice touch to their resume! How could these college players not be excited?
Now in the players' tunnel, there is no need for the coach and captain to shout slogans at them, they are all extremely excited!
But they also felt something was a little strange: normally at this time of year there should be thunderous cheers, so why was it so quiet today? Was it because everyone knew someone was coming to watch the game that they were so reserved?
This shouldn't happen!
Even when their outstanding alumnus Jordan Spieth (ps: the world's number one men's professional golfer, won the World Challenge Championship at the age of 21 and the Grand Slam Championship at the age of 22) came back to watch their game, the scene was not so quiet.
This is Texas! Who's going to be scared just because you have a lot of money? (PS: The highest-paid sport in the world is golf, known as the "sport of the elite." China's top golfer, Feng Shanshan, earns about $3.5 million a year, while Jordan Spieth makes over 20 times that and is now a billionaire.)
The players were also wondering: Why is there such a strange smell? It smells like burning, but also has a unique aroma.
Living in Texas, we're all too familiar with this smell: it's clearly barbecue, but it doesn't taste like roast beef...
Wait! Someone's having a barbecue on the field? They almost laughed at the thought—who would have a barbecue on a football field?
At this moment, the host's voice came from the stadium's loudspeaker: "Let's welcome the Texas Long...Horn...Bull!"
The host spoke in a long and loud voice, and his momentum was really strong.
"Now it's time to go to the battlefield!" Fall shouted. "Let those Southern Illinois University idiots know what we are! Longhorns!"
"We will win!"
"Longhorn!"
"We will win!"
"Longhorn!"
"We will win!"
The Longhorn players bumped helmets against each other to cheer themselves up. Fall pointed to the tunnel entrance and said, "Go!"
