Why The Hell is Greg Oden Drinking Boxed Wine At Penn State?

The guy to Oden's left is either 11 feet tall or standing on a chair. I'm going with 11 feet tall

Greg Oden was the first pick in last year's NBA draft after spending only one year at Ohio State, so the guy's making some serious dough ($3.885 million this year). On top of that, he had ~~foot~~ knee surgery before the start of the season and has yet to play a game in the NBA. So, what does a 20-year-old millionaire from Ohio State do during the month of April? Come to Blue & White weekend and drink Franzia at an apartment at Penn State of course.

So a couple of pictures are floating around of Oden at this party which reportedly happened here over the weekend. There's nothing in the pictures which points out that it's Penn State, but hey I'll go with it. If you know anyone in the picture, let me know and we can get some verification going.

So, what's Greg Oden doing at Penn State? I mean being a former Ohio State player you'd think he might be afraid of getting beer cans thrown at him. But turns out Oden was here to visit his "pal" Megan Hodge from the PSU women's volleyball team.

Can you imagine though? Greg Oden shows up at your place to party and all you have for the guy is box wine? Someone should take their partying license from these guys. I mean really! No wonder we lost out to West Virginia as top party school. Box wine my ass!

Oh, and Greg. An "I am McLovin'" t-shirt? Really?

First of all, don't hate on the Franzia. Secondly, if he's only 20, wouldn't that translate into underage drinking? It's sad that you can make that much money and be that famous and still not be allowed to buy alcohol. Lucky for him he looks 50. And we all have a little Mclovin in us.

Good for him. I think its refreshing to see somebody of his stature be who he wants to be. Let the man drink boxed wine at least we know he wont be broke like many other once-weathly athletes. Posted 04/25/2008 12:15 PMReply

How is his career in danger if he has some drinks when he is 20 years old? A few months really isnt going to make a difference. Posted 04/25/2008 12:29 PMReply

Greg I think just likes college life. He's continuing to take classes at Ohio State this summer and has said before that his only year in college was the best year of his life, so I think he's just getting one more go-round while he can. Greg's one of the good guys in the sports world. Posted 04/25/2008 2:02 PMReply

Foot surgery?? You don't know anything about what you're talking about buddy. Greg Oden had microfracture knee surgery not foot surgery. Get smart! Posted 04/26/2008 11:39 AMReply

Boxed wine is for bums who have bad taste and throw lame parties. Who's the tool in the crown and where are his anal beads? Posted 04/27/2008 12:31 AMReply
