the wheel before. Fourteen percent admitted that it's happened at
least once. Things that we do to stay awake, drink
something with caffeine, crank up one O five to nine

on the phone. I'll tell you, I, uh, I've done
this once in my life where I have fallen asleep drive.

classes at Vall State there in Gallatin, and I got
right before the Glenn Brook exit, and there's that big
curve there in Hendersonville.

I came around that turn and I just fell asleep
because I had DJ at club the night before and
then I went to class, fell asleep, cut across two
lanes and then hit those drunk bumps at and boy,
let me tell you, I had never been so jolted

But don't worry.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
Team celebrations are still allowed, but if you so much
as wipe your nose the wrong way flag on the play.
Apparently the nosewipe celebration is getting banned because of a
gang affiliation. So I guess if you have allergies, just
sniff real hard and hope for the best. I mean,

flags for aggressive high fives and excessive joy fifteen yard penalty.

to watch Nashville Predators be animated cartoon characters, although the
outcome of the game not uh not what we were
hoping for. Columbus Bluejackets beat the Preds last night, final
score eight to four.

the rest of Middle Tennessee.

Speaker 1 (20:32):
I apologize.

Speaker 2 (20:33):

It didn't work, obviously because it did not play the keyword.
So if you missed the keyword, well, everybody missed the
keyword because.

Speaker 1 (20:43):
It did not play. Let's pray.

Speaker 2 (20:45):
Let's blame program director Jonathan. Everybody point the finger at him.

is highway. If you missed it, Highway. All right, I'm
out of here. Jilly's up next. Enjoy the rest of
your Wednesday on Instagram. Follow me at Battle on air.
