Who's Down For The Harbaugh Breakfast Challenge? [VIDEO]

By now you know everything there possibly is to know about the new coach of Michigan football.
Since Jim Harbaugh took the gig in Ann Arbor, every kind of story has been written about him. We have witnessed coverage of him on the recruiting trail, playing in the Michigan band last Saturday at Crisler Center and, of course, we all now know how he likes his cereal too.
In case you missed it, Jay Harbaugh, the son of Jim, not only was named Michigan's new tight ends coach, but he also shared a story of how his dad once ate his favorite cereal with Gatorade instead of milk.
Now, I'm not sure if it's fair to judge Harbaugh for his breakfast habits without knowing what kind of cereal or Gatorade he was working with, but I'm going to anyway. It's disgusting! Think how awful that would taste! Filthy!
But this is Michigan we're talking about and since we know the head coach did it, I would fully expect the student body and fans to quickly follow suit.
And…of course… right after I typed that last sentence, it has been brought to my attention that the Michigan Alumni Association has come up with the "Harbaugh Breakfast Challenge" a test where volunteers are asked to use several different combinations of cereal and Gatorade together.
The vast variety of both Gatorade and cereal out there means the combinations could be endless.
Cheerios and Purple…Gross.
Fruity Pebbles and Pink…makes me want to vomit.
Lucky Charms and Blue…couldn't pay me enough.
I like the attempt by the Michigan Alumni Association here to get people to partake in such a disgusting proposition but there is no way this becomes the next great sensation.
Unless…
You do it for charity!
So here is what I propose…
Think of the most disgusting concoction of Gatorade and cereal, mix it all together and eat it. After getting sick to your stomach and maybe dry heaving a bit, break out your checkbook and donate $10 to the Chad Tough charity.
Click the link to donate and send us your video via Twitter with #ChadTough and we will post your videos as well.
What do you say? Good idea? I'll start!
Check back on this very website at the end of the week and I'll eat whatever combination of cereal and Gatorade you come up with. Let me know your combinations in the comments section and I'll have our webmaster pick the most disgusting blend.
There is only one catch. If I do it, you have to as well.
Who knows-- Maybe we're on to something here.
