CORVALLIS, Ore. (AP) — Two Oregon Duck fans pleaded not guilty to stealing the mascot head of ESPN’s Lee Corso during the Civil War football game in Corvallis.
August Michael Zane Cuneo of Eugene and Alexander Joseph Westerberg of Harrisburg entered the pleas Thursday in Benton County Circuit Court.
Deputy District Attorney Chris Stringer said there are no plans to jail the men if they are convicted.
Cuneo told The Register-Guard allegations involving him have all been false.
Oregon State Police says the pair swiped the head when they spotted it next to an ESPN trailer on the Oregon State campus where Corso was covering the game as an analyst.
