The fantastic DC history blog, Ghosts of DC, recently ran a story about how Georgetown shutting out W. Virginia (!) in a 1928 football game resulted in a couple's marriage. Enjoy:

Gotta love the Georgetown football heritage stories. Here's to hoping that the 2012 Hoyas team creates some stories that, generations from now, people will be telling one another.

The bride, Marjorie Morris, was apparently quite a party girl (and the marriage based on the G'town win was, unfortunately, annulled): ghostsofdc.org/2012/07/23/chevy-chase-whoopee-party-1929/
