🟡🐯 Gary the Skeleton – A Mizzou March Sadness Tale 🐯🟡
📍 Columbia, Missouri
📆 Year: ??? (no one remembers anymore)
They told Gary, “Just hang tight, this is our year.”
That was six coaching staffs, four NIL eras, three pandemics, and one regrettable Cuonzo contract ago.
He bought season tickets in 1980.
He’s been in this chair ever since.
He missed his daughter’s wedding, the moon landing rerun, and the invention of TikTok — all because he believed.
In what? In Mizzou Men’s Basketball making the Final Four.
👕 He’s still rocking that 2009 Elite Eight optimism.
🕸️ Cobwebs now part of the starting five.
💀 Zero Final Fours. Infinite patience.
Gary didn’t die.
He just… waited too long.
