A Penn State fan ran spent $1,000 to run out of the Washington tunnel before a football game.
A Penn State fan in disguise paid $1,000 to troll Washington before a football game on Saturday afternoon in Seattle. He ran onto the field alongside players in rival gear.
It is not his first time going viral for purchasing a fan experience package at an opposing school in the Big Ten. The Nittany Lions might encourage him to do it more given game results.
The fan is Jordan Mott, a realtor in Silicon Valley. He’s a diehard Penn State supporter, as evidenced by his social media feeds.

On Saturday, he took that fandom to another level. He dropped four figures to troll an opponent.
Penn State fan runs out of Washington tunnel.
And he did so wearing Nittany Lions gear. It’s something that he’s done in the past. A few years back, he spent $1,800 to run out of the USC tunnel before a meeting with Penn State in Los Angeles.
In that instance, he was not undercover. It was an option given to members of both fanbases as each team ran onto the field from the same tunnel. He chose to wait to enter alongside the Trojans.
The entrance quickly went viral. He was even contacted personally by then-head coach James Franklin.
Washington offers a similar experience to fans as part of its Montlake Memories package. The option to run out alongside the Dawgs is on the table.
Mott says he was the only fan to take advantage of the experience on Saturday. He showed up decked out in purple, but unbeknownst to staff, had enemy gear underneath.
Mott ripped off his breakaway t-shirt upon entering the field. He donned a Penn State shirt and flag as he ran out in front of 68,000 fans.
The Nittany Lions won the game, 28-25. They are now 2-0 when Mott trolls his opponent. He vowed to hit another rival in the future. Penn State might hope it comes sooner than later!
