The key to Busted Coverage’s success was how they went out and found hot Song Girls to profile. Lindsey was an instant hit. The 40th anniversary was fun. We even went under the shirt of one 2008 Song Girl to see her tattoo. Now it has all come to an end. Saturday’s game against Notre Dame marked the final home performance for the 2008 team. The next time we’ll see the team together will be Jan. 1, 2009. [Busted Coverage]
