Football is a serious business, especially when it comes to the bowl games. This year marked the 100th Rose Bowl in Pasadena, CA. More than 20 million watched Michigan State and Stanford battle it out this year. These teams have worked tirelessly to earn their spot on the team and on the field – and there is nothing funny about that. However, both of these outstanding football teams appreciate a good laugh.

When asked who the pranksters were on these bowl teams, coaches and teammates alike were eager to reveal their team comedian. The Michigan State Spartans are regularly laughing at their junior Defensive Lineman – James Kittredge, Jr., while senior Runningback – Anthony Wilkerson keeps the Stanford Cardinals in stitches. Both players enjoy playing pranks on their teammates and specialize in impersonating others, especially their coaches, which are always appreciated by team members.

We are told that laughter is contagious and that laughter is the best medicine. Andrew Carnegie even said, “There is little success where there is little laughter”. Apparently this rings true on the football field for Michigan State and Stanford. They all enjoy laughing and being entertained by their team Perhaps some of their team’s success can be attributed to their humorous teammates – James Kittredge, Jr. and Anthony Wilkerson.
