Wanna sit at the front of the bus?

Ever wanted to ride to Beaver Stadium in style, just like the Nittany Lion football team?

Well now's your chance. For decades, the Lions have ridden to the stadium on gameday in the same familiar, plain blue buses. They were nothing special, just typical school buses painted blue and emblazoned with "The Pennsylvania State University" on the side.

During the summer the old buses just weren't going to cut it. After years of wear and tear the program decided to replace the old buses with new ones. Of course the familiar plain paint scheme hasn't changed.

But then the question arose, what would the university do with the old buses? We now have our answer.

If you're sitting around with an extra couple grand sitting in your pocket, you can purchase one of these bad boys. The engines look like they might need a little attention, but there it is, the official Penn State football bus, on the market.

You can sit in the same seats as LaVar Arrington, Michael Robinson, Kerry Collins, Ki-Jana Carter and even Joe Paterno himself, but my guess is it's gonna cost ya. I guess my VW's just gonna have to cut it for a little while longer.

The Roster

Travis Johnson Mug

Josh Langenbacher Mug

Andrew Wible Mug

Andrew Wible is a junior majoring in journalism and a football reporter for the Daily Collegian. He has also covered the men's and women's basketball teams. A confused soul, he listens to rap, plays golf and hunts. And like any true Pennsylvanian, he treats the Monday after Thanksgiving as a national holiday.
