With fall practice about to begin, Urban Meyer was able to carve out some time to appear at the Ohio State fair.

A buttery version of Meyer will be on display during the fair after sculptors used 2,000 pounds of butter and spent 500 hours to perfect it, Cleveland.com reported.
The release from the American Dairy Association Mideast says it all:
Yes, it’s sort of gross. But we’ve seen much, much worse food sculptures of athletes — remember the Marcus Mariota sandwich?
And how could anyone forget the Marshawn Lynch balloon?
Along with the Meyer sculpture — which looks incredibly lifelike, if it wasn’t, you know, butter — Brutus Buckeye, the national championship trophy and an Ohio State helmet also were sculpted out of butter.
So if you’re in the Columbus area from July 29 to Aug. 9, stop by The Ohio Expo Center & State Fair and check them out.
