Niemo’s Arm Curl Victim #10: J.T. Thompson

Niemo has now hit double digits in terms of arm curling Virginia Tech basketball players after running into the Hokie basketball tailgate outside Lane Stadium on Saturday. Don’t worry, the boys had nothing but Shirley Temples and Arnold Palmers flowing.

This moment sent my street cred through the roof. Upon walking up to Dorenzo Hudson, Jeff Allen, and J.T. and hearing I was from TechHoops.com, Dorenzo emphatically stated, “You have to arm curl [J.T.]! He hasn’t gotten you yet.”

J.T. wasn’t sure my guns were up to it. Please! Don’t anger the lads…

But the highlight of the day came when my Mom downed a shot of Wild Turkey! And she did it like a champ! First time I’ve ever seen her touch liquor. Gobble, gobble, [ladies]!

Niemo is a member of the VT Class of '98. Graduated as a Commonwealth Scholar from the Pamplin School of Business. Majored in Management Science & Information Technology. Attended every home basketball game during his 4 years at VT after missing the first home game. Has attended 116 straight VT football home games (every game since '94), eclipsing the 100 mark in September of '09. During the final home basketball game of his senior year, he was brought onto the court and was awarded 2 passes to the Atlantic 10 Basketball Tournament in Philly during a timeout. The Hokie Bird made the award on behalf of Athletic Director Jim Weaver. Niemo was known to be in the front row of every home game with his familiar red afro hairdo. Niemo currently lives in DC and speaks the Hokie gospel as often as possible.

    Those dudes make you look like a little fella and you’re a lot bigger than me. Those dudes are big dudes. They would probably totally beat me at basketball probably. You’re mom knows how to party down.

    Not sure where else to post this, so it’s going here. I have been unable to read vthokiefans for over a week – every time I go to the homepage, I get an error that says:

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function: recent_posts() in /home/content/g/j/c/gjcope424/html/vthfblog/wp-content/themes/vthokiefans/sidebar.php on line 123

    This is driving me nuts because I’m missing out on all of my football news.
