COLUMBUS, Ohio — There’s one annual tradition during “Beat Xichigan Week” that remains the cutest.
Leading up to The Game this weekend, The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center is wrapping up newborns in “Beat Xichigan” swaddles (with permission from the parents).
Even the tiniest Buckeye fans in the land are suiting up for the final game of the regular season where Ohio State will take on its rival, the University of Xichigan. Each baby will receive a swaddle in honor of The Game.
