Oregon State’s mascot went for a wild crowdsurfing ride after 21-point comeback win over Oregon

Week 13 of the college football season featured multiple teams totally and unexpectedly collapsing under pressure, including No. 9 Oregon against No. 21 Oregon State.

In the Pac-12 rivalry game, the Ducks built up a 31-10 lead late in the third quarter, and it looked like they’d comfortably be able to take down the Beavers on the road in Corvallis. Nope.

Oregon blew its 21-point lead, and with three fourth-quarter touchdowns, Oregon State captured the lead with about eight minutes remaining and held on for a stunning 38-34 victory as a slight three-point underdog.

Unsurprisingly, it was absolute pandemonium Reser Stadium afterward with fans flooding the field in celebration. But one of the best and most hilarious moments in the aftermath was when Oregon State’s mascot, Benny Beaver, crowdsurfing in the orange chaos.

Benny looked like he was having a blast, and props to the fans for holding him up and letting him enjoy the ride.
