Alabama freshman Jack Blankenship, who has become famous for holding a cardboard cutout of his own goofy face at University of Alabama basketball games this season, was in attendance Saturday night as Alabama hosted Mississippi State in an SEC basketball matchup. However, this time Blankenship wasn't holding a cutout of his own goofy face, but the "goofy face" of ESPN reporter and SportsNation host Michelle Beadle.
Blankenship had made the talk show rounds this past week, including stops on NBC's "Today" and "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon". However, Blankenship has probably had enough of seeing his own goofy face by now, so give him credit for putting a new twist on his "goofy face" gimmick. Not sure what Beadle will think about her own goofy face, though...
So, how did things go with Beadle's face? Well, this video shows Mississippi State guard Dee Bost missing both of his free throws, so the goofy Beadle face certainly didn't help. Alabama went on to win the game 67-50, so Blankenship went home happy.
