Along with the new year comes new, harsher, penalties for alcohol violations in Pennsylvania. Specifically, there have been increases to the fines levied against those caught drinking underage. Previously, the maximum penalty was a $300 fine, however the new law stipulates a $500 fine for a first time offender and a $1,000 fine for a second offense.

The "Thank You Terry" blog was named because of Pegula's $102 million gift to bring Division One hockey to Happy Valley. The $1.3 million Terry Pegula promised yesterday is only a a little over one percent of that total, but in the end, it might turn out to be just as important.

A valiant effort in a tough environment fell short in the end as the Penn State Men's Basketball team lost its Big Ten opener to Wisconsin 60-51.

Penn State has seen several wild days on social media over the past 14 months, but yesterday might have been one of the craziest. As several fans exhaled following the news that Bill O'Brien would remain with the Nittany Lions, some former, current, and future players took to Twitter to provide their reactions.

After a very stressful few hours, Penn State fans can rest easy. Bill O'Brien is staying in Happy Valley. O'Brien made the decision after interviewing with both the Cleveland Browns and the Philadelphia Eagles.
