Oregon visits Stanford on Thursday night for a heavyweight college football matchup between the West Coast's two best programs. The game will be played at Stanford Stadium in Palo Alto, Calif., in the heart of Silicon Valley just miles from the corporate campuses of tech and social media companies including Google, Facebook and LinkedIn.
Oregon quarterback and Heisman Trophy candidate Marcus Mariota can be sure to expect plenty of abuse from Stanford fans. But one sign has already won the day and provided a zinger that's perfectly appropriate for a fan base located in the heart of the world's tech capital. Behold, via Twitter photos showing ESPN's set on the Stanford campus:

Well played, anonymous tech-minded Stanford fan. Well played indeed.
