Dunphys at the Rose Bowl
If you love Modern Family as much as I do, you watched the season premier last night. Phil and Claire were going to sell the station wagon they drove to the Rose Bowl in, and began to reminisce about the good times of that trip. When asked by their son "what happened?" Phil stated the outcome of the game was "...we got pummeled by Penn State."
Well, I did a little research and apparently Phil and Claire Dunphy attended the Rose Bowl in 1995 (for the 1994 season) and if "WE" got pummeled by Penn State, that means THEY are Oregon fans...which is unfortunate.
Penn State is 1-2 all time in the Rose Bowl, and the only time they won was in the mid-90's. If in fact Angela Lansbury was the grand marshal in the Parade of Roses (as Phil stated), then "good times, she wrote" indeed.

Ha! I gotta forward this on to my hubby. He was wondering who Penn State played in the Rose too. Thanks!
I love love love that you did this!
Nice detective work, Mackie...
Lansbury was actually the Marshall for the 1993 Rose Bowl - Chi Chi Rodriguez was for the 1995 ToR
Someone has too much spare time on their hands. :)
