Let’s set aside for a few minutes the astounding $1.32 million check that Old Dominion will collect for playing at Liberty University this weekend, and the miracle worker who made it possible.
Instead, let’s focus on a group called Jerry’s Jokers, who epitomize the very difficult atmosphere that the Monarchs will face when they open against Liberty Saturday night at 6 in Lynchburg.
Jerry’s Jokers is a student group that hopes to make life miserable for the Monarchs. They paint their faces like clowns, and since clowns have always freaked me out, well, I’m sure they will be intimidating.
