So, there is quite a story behind, not this picture, but the person in it. Rich Briener is a speech professor at UGF. He is one of those professors that no one forgets, not because he was amazing and walked on water, but because he was half-crazy in everything he did. There are buckets full of Briener stories, but this one, I believe tops any:
(For you entertainment, I will type this as a "there I was" speech, made famous by Briener himself)
There I was, driving down 10th ave. with my friends Sarah and Trevor. We were stopped at a light, and I noticed a bicyclist on the right side, vigorously pedaling. This person also had spandex and the whole outfit. The closer I looked, I saw a McDonald's bag gripped by one hand, and the other hand was trying desperately to grab the hot, tasty french fries inside (courtesy of Dane Cook).
-"Hey, guys, check out that hard-core biker. He's eating fries while he's riding." I said.
-"Oh, man, what a loser. So much for that bike ride." Sarah said.
I looked a little closer to the person. It was Briener!
-"It's Briener, guys! HOLY CRAP! It's Briener!"
It was Briener.
