This DCist holds no local or regional basketball allegiances. We’re just waiting for the Michigan Wolverines to return to basketball greatness. Those who are patient are rewarded in the end. Yeah, that sounds sort of like a fortune cookie message. But one fortune you probably aren’t going to find in a cookie is “Fear the Turtle.” But you can find that plastered all over the Gallery Place-Chinatown metrorail station, in an ad buy the athletic director at the University of Maryland probably regrets now. Should we take non-binding bets as to when they’ll be coming down? Or will they remain for a couple weeks? Something tells us WMATA wants to keep the ad revenue.
This afternoon on our Red Line trip home, we came across a number of children asking their parents at the Gallery Place-Chinatown station why they should be “afraid of turtles.” In the basketball arena, at least for the rest of March Madness, they have nothing to fear.
