For starters, just two weekends after Steve was placed in his natural habitat in the bushes outside of Langford B, we recorded some horrendous amount of rain in a very short span of time. That was the same rainstorm that forced the athletic program to buy hundreds of thousands of dollars of new turf for Kyle Field. Too bad they couldn't have spent that money on an enclosure for Steve.
The trouble did not stop there. Steve had his leg inadvertently broken by somebody who tripped in to him while trying to take a picture. I guess that is the downside of being such a handsome dinosaur. We think this was the blow that did him in, but we decided to stick an arrow in his neck, just to put him out of his misery. A sad situation, but we must not grieve too much. Steve's spirit lives on in our hearts, just as the spirit of his Dino brethren live on in fuel tanks everywhere. What is dead may never die.
RIP Steve, You are forever remembered.
