Last night during the NU vs Mizzou game, before the Husker’s comeback against the Tigers matched the largest fourth-quarter comeback in school history, there was quite a bit of tension among Nebraska fans.  Discussion involved talking about a “Big Red Brick” that one remembered from his college days – a red foam life-like brick complete with holes that one could throw at the TV when a bad play was called. So today after 27-12 win, I decided to see if I could find such brick for the next game.

Here’s what I came up with so far…

The Bad Call Brick, a standard size foam rubber brick, available for $6.99 from HuskerVideo.com, but appears it would work for any team/sport.

Amazon also offers a Football University Bad Call Brick for $3.59.

Now I’m considering ordering my own Corporate Logo Foam Bricks to promote this very Husker website and hand out – who would want one??

To think I was impressed when Hasbro created a Mrs. Potato Head to give Mr. Potato Head some companionship.  Now they make several renditions from Star Wars Potato Head to Indiana Jones Potato Head.  I was updating a list of Sport Mr. Potato Heads and saw they now make NCAA Mr Potato Heads! So, of course, I just had to find the Nebraska Cornhusker Mr Potato Head! Available from Amazon.com, $14.99.

This officially licensed Mr. Potato Head is designed for collectors and fans of all ages. Standing 6″ tall, this player is the perfect size for proudly displaying on a shelf or playing “mix and match” to create a variety of hilarious combinations. Each Collegiate Sports Spud comes with 10 components including a School jersey, helmet, football and multiple “game faces”.
