It looks like Joint Base Lewis-McChord's commander, Col. Chuck Hodges, will be making good on his bet with Lakewood's mayor, Don Anderson.
The city and JBLM enjoy a very good relationship that both Anderson and Hodges prize. But that didn't stop them from making a friendly wager on the outcome of the University of Oregon/Florida State University Rose Bowl game yesterday.
Anderson, a native of Coos Bay, Oregon, and Hodges, a native of Tallahassee, Florida, had bet that their state's team would win.
Anderson won the bet.
To put it differently, the Ducks clobbered the Seminoles, 59-20.
Oregon will now play Ohio State in the first ever College Football Championship to be held Jan. 12 in Arlington, Texas.
Ohio State earlier defeated Alabama 42-35 to advance to the final.
As to the Anderson-Hodges bet, Hodges owes Anderson a dinner at The Bistro at Russell Landing at JBLM.
No date has been set for the engagement.
