I think everyone's familiar with the fact that athletes occasionally pimp some horrible colognes that are named after them. Derek Jeter's done it, Michael Jordan as well. But apparently colleges now want to get involved too, because there's a company out there that's creating specific school perfumes and colognes. God bless capitalism. Yep, some company called Masik Collegiate Fragrances has already given Penn State and UNC their own scents. Penn State's cologne smells of blue cypress and cracked pepper. UNC's smells like Tyler Hansbrough's shoe.
The scents are targeted specifically at alumni and football fans of the schools. Because everyone knows that you have to smell like some randomly selected scent in order to be a true football fan.
Next year you'll be able to be able to get scents of the following SEC programs: Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, Auburn, and LSU.
Obviously, the idea of a school having a specific smell sets up endless possibilities for jokes. For example:
- Temple cologne smells like Bill Cosby's piss.
- Iowa's perfume smells like a Metrodome urinal, Franzia, and some other man.
- Ohio State smells like a sweatervest and unwrapped textbooks.
- Notre Dame smells like crap.
