ESPN’s Holly Rowe knows it’s survival of the fittest in the Sugar Bowl interview pit

Post-game Sugar Bowl interview or The Hunger Games? Vicious use of the chicken wing to push another reporter out of your way is all in a day’s work for ESPN reporter Holly Rowe. It was the moments following Michigan’s controversial win over Virginia Tech in the Sugar Bowl when Rowe, jockeying for position to interview triumphant Michigan coach Brady Hoke, found her way blocked by another female reporter. That was bad news for the other reporter. One forearm shiver and a body block later, Rowe was in control. Her reaction to the video is below.

 

“Totally unintentional,” Rowe tweeted at Micah Grimes, a social media producer for BN9.com, “Didn’t realize it even happened, post game can be free for all.”

There are several bruised and bandaged souls down at the Whole Foods supermarket near Rowe’s home who will testify that the above quote may not be the entire truth.

    as a Michigan football supporter I was highly enjoying the improbable victory until right after the game I saw Ms.Rowe shove another female reporter out the way….

    DISGUSTING.

    Ms.Rowe showed the world, “hey I WORK FOR ESPN, my interview and whatever I have to do post-game is more important then whatever you have to do or WHOEVER you work for”

    kinda like the whole big bank take little bank thing

    for her to say didnt realize it happened? HAHA thats WORSE then Suh’s explanation of how he did NOT mean to stomp out the Packer on Thanksgiving ,

    you looked right at her and shoved her like she was nothing, no respect, like she wasn’t even human.

    Unfortunately its how ESPN does business…

    congrats ESPN & Holly Rowe , you showed every young college girl in America who is on winter break how to be classy and professional all with one shove !
