Octagon of Doom

A phrase from Manhattan, Kansas and Kansas State University that is used to describe Bramlage Coliseum where the Wildcats play basketball. Holds two very different meanings:

1. Supposed to imply that the team playing K-State is doomed to lose. Thus, the opponent is doomed.

2. Also can be applied when a better team comes to Bramlage Coliseum, thus dooming the Kansas State fans to a disappointing loss.

Note: Kansas State fans are subject to just as much doom as the teams they play, especially when playing The University of Kansas Jayhawks.

1. Wow, the Octagon of Doom was absolutely crazy when K-State beat a struggling Texas team.

2. After Kansas beat Kansas State inside the Octagon of Doom, all the fans in purple and white realized they are doomed to lose to Kansas forever.
