|
(COLUMBUS,
Ohio)—Ohio Governor Mike DeWine and Michigan Governor Gretchen
Whitmer placed a friendly wager ahead of the rivalry football game
between The Ohio State University and the University of Michigan,
commonly referred to as "The Game."
“With Ohio State and Michigan both undefeated entering The Game,
and with Big Ten Championship Game and College Football Playoff
berths on the line, the eyes of American sports fans will be on
Columbus, Ohio and Ohio Stadium tomorrow,” said Ohio Governor Mike
DeWine. “I am proud of and confident in our Buckeye football team
again this year, and am I willing to put a little skin in The Game
with another friendly wager showcasing great Ohio food. O-H!”
This year, Governor DeWine offered Buckeye Pizza from Adriatico’s
on the OSU campus; Stewart’s Root Beer, which was founded in
Mansfield, Ohio, in 1924; and the iconic Jumbo Cream Puffs from
Schmidt’s Sausage Haus in Columbus. In 2021, he bet an assortment of
Ohio-made sweets, including cream puffs from Schmidt's , black
raspberry chip ice cream from Graeter's in Cincinnati,
chocolate-covered pretzels from Malley's in Cleveland, and buckeye
candies from Marsha's Homemade Buckeyes in Perrysburg. Governor
DeWine also wagered a basket of Ohio's famous buckeye candies in
2019.
"In the 118-year history of The Game, this weekend’s match-up might
be the most consequential to date with two undefeated teams putting
their seasons on the line,” said Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer.
“However, when the clock runs out, only one team will be crowned The
Victors. That’s why I’m feeling good about this year’s bet with
Governor DeWine of Ohio. After this win, it’s on to the Big Ten
Championship game and almost certainly a guaranteed spot in the
College Football Playoffs. Go Blue!”
This year, Governor Whitmer put forward a Detroit-style gift
package, including the famous Buddy’s pizza, a dessert from Good
Cakes and Bakes, and a case of Vernor's ginger ale, which is known
to cure any ailment except maybe a big loss to the Wolverines. In
2021, she wagered a gift package of famous Michigan-made cherry
sweets and treats from Cherry Republic in Glen Arbor. In 2019,
Governor Whitmer bet a box of goodies from Zingerman's in Ann Arbor.
On Saturday, November 26 at noon, the Ohio State Buckeyes will host
the Michigan Wolverines for the 118th meeting of "The Game." First
played in 1897, the Buckeyes have won 17 out of the last 20 meetings
between the two squads.
