This week marks the 11th anniversary of one of the forgotten memories of the crosstown rivalry. In 2001, Pete Carroll had an employee take a dummy to the top of the Seeley G. Mudd building during football practice.
The employee then wrestled the dummy atop the roof with the football team watching in disbelief. The team was led to believe the dummy was a UCLA spy and had been caught by USC.
Carroll instructed the employee to throw the dummy off the roof. Some team members thought it was real.
But here’s where it gets interesting. When the dummy was thrown off the roof, it nearly hit a student walking by Seeley G. Mudd. “It would have killed them,” a witness said.
Thankfully, the dummy missed and no one was injured.
Scott, were you hurt when you hit the ground?
Oh yea…The Cheatin years. Simulating acts of violence on a campus where acts of violence (SHOOTINGS/ROBBERY/RAPE) are a daily ritual. Maybe the DUMMY was really Garrett? Who’d have noticed?
You should reevaluate your life.
You should reevaluate your screen name. Like none of this stuff happens at the University of South Central. but fit do fit on!
Not that this matters to Scott, but there are 2 (or possibly 2-in-1) mentally ill people on these boards who post constantly. I guess they sort of match the level of cynicism and smugness in the blog posts. I’m only posting because there’s a big game tomorrow, the rest of the 51 weeks are yours, the mentally ill or dumb-humored.
To the Trojan fans, FTFO.

A couple of corrections: The prank occurred in 2005 (not 11 years ago!) and it was on Oct. 31st (Halloween).
