Who is @WuDrWu?
That is a great question. Let me see if I can shed some light.
Mods, forgive me if this should have its own thread.
The legend of @WuDrWu started many moons ago on the prairie. He(sexist assumption I know)!was first seen tripping up referees along court-side during the mid 90's basketball game. Of course, he had around much prior, but this situation, though some question its validity, started a conversation in this thing called a "Chatroom". Then he began appearing everywhere. Womens basketball, baseball, track and field, volleyball, baseball, and there were even some grainy black and white photos that suggest he was on the sideline of Football games(although the validity of these are also questioned).
What we know for fact is that he can be found most days sporting a WSU hat, which in Wichita doesnt allow him to be spotted easily as the sea of crimson and blue has been diluted with black and yellow recently. And we know that he will talk about WSU to any crimson and blue wearing smug, many of whom have never been to the Lawrence campus. Many a KU fan has spoken of interactions with a man described as fiercely loyal to WSU. He is not 10 feet tall as they say, but even The Big Show looks up to him.
He is a FAN among fans. A supporter of teams and coaches with no regards to wins and losses. He is a sharer of experiences with many who would have never else-wise gotten to go. He is a man who knows people, only due to his selfless seeking out of anyone who enjoys talking about the Shockers. He is a family man, who puts them even so slightly above the Shockers (minus a few, understandable exceptions). He is a friend to many, and an enemy only to those who argue with gross assumptions against his Shockers as he can face facts better than most.
So, in the end, who is WuDrWu? He is one of 10,506 at any basketball game. One of 2,700 that attend volleyball games, one of 3,100 that attend baseball games. One of 400 that attend softball games.
My suggestion is if you want to know @WuDrWu, GO! If you attend these 4 events over a span of a season, and pay attention, you will find him. However, many have not due to most fans being of a sport, and not a University. HE is the most supreme fan of WSU you will find, and the person every fan should aspire to be. I hope that helps answer your question.
