Celebrities turn out to cheer on the Nittany Lions’ basketball team over Ohio State

The hype surrounding Penn State basketball’s rematch with No. 8 Ohio State Thursday night was enough to bring the celebrities out to the Bryce Jordan Center.

Rapper and reality TV personality Flavor Flav and Penn State football standout and Super Bowl champ Stefan Wisniewski were both spotted in the white-out crowd.

Flavor Flav is a relative of senior guard Shep Garner and has been to several games over Garner’s four years with the Nittany Lions, even snapping a photo with football coach James Franklin in 2015.

Wisniewski, an offensive lineman for the Philadelphia Eagles, was seated court side, greeting fans before the game.
