WATCH: Ohio State fans give "O-H-I-O" at Michigan practice in Italy
Michigan apparently can’t go anywhere on earth without hearing about Ohio State.
The Wolverines had their first practice in Italy on Thursday, and naturally, there were plenty of fans of American football to watch them.
That included Ohio State fans.
As Angelique Chengelis captured, there were four (maybe five if you include the little girl) Ohio State fans who wore their Buckeye gear to watch Michigan practice. Why? They missed American football.
And naturally, they through up on “O-H-I-O:”

A day earlier Jim Harbaugh was interviewed by a Michigan State graduate after visiting the Pope. He certainly noticed seeing another rival.

Harbaugh, with a wide grin, on the Ohio State fans at practice:
"I still have my eye on those guys. I’m still a little suspicious."— Kyle Rowland (@KyleRowland) April 27, 2017
If you’ll recall, there were several Ohio State fans brave enough to attend Michigan’s practices at IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla. last year.
One of the best rivalries in all of sports certainly travels abroad.
