The latest in our video game bug video round-up: this one actually happened to me, and the video is actually mine. And thankfully I got the replay uploaded.

Lemme paint you a picture. It's the opening game of the season. Our heroes, the #3 Kansas State Pretty Birds, have forced the #5 LSU Tigers¹ to punt from deep in their own territory on their first possession. But considering that I'm expecting this game to be a knife fight the whole way, I'm ready for a little trickery. What I'm not expecting is trickery that bends the laws of time and space.





So, yeah, that happened. The ball is snapped 37 yards down the field to the punter who, for some damned reason, is hanging about at midfield with both mascots (who wander away clapping their hands softly like idiots). Thankfully, the punter obligingly stays unresponsive while my punt returner tackles him into the ground, but that play will go down as being LSU's biggest play of the game, as they get end up on the short side of a 27-6 game.

¹Yeah, I have to fill the nonconference games with the biggest and best possible opponents, because even then for some reason the team that's gone two straight years without losing a game keeps getting ranked #3 or worse until the conference championships roll around. Fffft.

Damned BCS.

I have to break down and buy this, I think.

You know, my first thought was "This is vintage Les Miles..."

Which is a little scary.

I've heard and seen weird stuff from mascots before but this takes the cake.
