Web Celeb: Look at Me Being Serious

Here's the story behind this one:

In April 2008, USC student body Vice President Ryan Holt came back from a student government trip to D.C. to find his office completely filled with $80 worth of balloons. Seemingly an innocent prank, Holt had a total meltdown...which was awesomely caught on camera. Dubbed "Raging Ryan," the video blew up on the Internet and has garnered half of a million views on YouTube alone. Featured on XM's "Opie and Anthony," the video also scored a spot on VH1's "40 Greatest Internet Superstars" and a place in our Web Celeb-loving hearts. [CollegeHumor]

Roomful of balloons: $80.00

Air to fill them all: Negligible

Throwing a fit over finding your SGA office filled with them all: Free

Having the video of your petty tantrum spread all over the Internet for everyone in the world to see what a petulant baby you really are: Priceless

Tis the Season...

...for football. While the NFL season coverage gets more intense in preparation for the start of the season don't forget that college football starts this week. Some teams begin playing as soon as tomorrow. While a lot of times the 1st game for major schools is nothing more than a warm up against a DII school there will undoubtedly be some drama (remember Michigan from last year).
The preseason rankings were released a few days ago and for the first time in school history, Georgia is the #1 ranked team in the preseason. Rounding out the top 5 are Ohio State, USC, Oklahoma and Florida.
