Freshman Sean O?Neal felt a tinge of competitiveness on Nov. 2 and arrived on campus looking more like the Michelin Man than his old self in Greg Stobbe’s honors English class.
Bundled in 17 shirts, he argued this layered protective tread would keep him warm and safe from the varsity football boys who “hit very hard on the practice field.”
However, O’Neal had another reason to wear a plethora of shirts. Caleb Phipps, a ’98, grad previously held the “Stobbe’s Believe-it-or-Not” school record of wearing 10 shirts at one time during the winter of his senior year.
The stipulation for this obscure record is that the participant wears layered shirts that are easily visible and keeps them on through the lunch hour in the Ground Zero quad.
