While Kirk was, of course, the most famous for his political sphere, he was also a great fan of sports, especially great Oregon ducks The fact, the fact, is marked by the founder of Outkick Clay Travis.

Despite the fact that he was not out of Oregon, Kirk was a mass fan of ducks and quite regularly posted about it.

Saturday – First Football College on Saturday after death – Kirk’s ducks were on the road against the game against North -Western University Wildcats In Evanstan, Illinois, near Chicago’s suburbs where it grew.

It is unclear what his plans were, but undoubtedly he would have at least tuned.

Given that Kirk spent so much career at college campus, contributing to the culture of discussions and galvanizing like -minded people, it was a little disappointed not to see many houses at a college stadium.

However, there were many student bodies. There is also no doubt that Kirk was in the head of many players who took fields across the country this weekend, including in this Oregon locker room.
