Late last night, The Buckeye Battle Cry reached a big milestone, and we’d like to take a moment to celebrate it.<\/p>\n
A few minutes after Midnight, when most of us were coming down off our “Lost” high, tBBC was visited by our 500,000th Buckeye fan*.<\/p>\n
Half a million visits may not be a big number for our amazing friends at 11 Warriors<\/a> and Bucknuts<\/a>, but we’re all raising a glass at this corner of the world.<\/p>\n You know the story of this site.\u00a0 Less than four years ago, it was just a tiny little place for one guy to spout an opinion and make videos.\u00a0 Now it’s home to some of the best damn writers in Ohio (and beyond….see MaliBuckeye), and clearly it’s home to a lot of you scarlet and gray fans.<\/p>\n While the credit goes to you, the loyal fans of tBBC, I will again state that this website would not be at all relevant without Jim, Eric, Rob Harley and the aforementioned Californian.\u00a0 Nearly half of our total hits came since we expanded the staff 10 months ago.<\/strong><\/p>\n They’ll be running the show throughout football season this year, since Fox Sports Ohio hired this site’s fifth-best writer. I know that my baby will continue to grow and prosper, and your visits are the proof.<\/p>\n Thank you VERY much, Buckeye fans!\u00a0 I propose a toast to all of you!\u00a0 Grab a drink and take a swig of it.\u00a0 It’s on me.\u00a0 Let’s drink to old Ohio til we wobble in our shoes!<\/p>\n
