Ben Franklin was a Gobbler


It is a little known fact that esteemed statesman, Benjamin Franklin, attended Virginia Tech and was a Hokie.

Franklin once noted that: "I wish the Bald Eagle had not been chosen as the representative of our country; he is a bird of bad moral character. The turkey is a much more respectable bird, and withal a true original native of America."

Old Ben is one of my greatest heroes. Writer, statesman, inventor, philosopher and horny old goat, he embodied everything that made America great.
