The Block O Contest is officially over! Thanks to everyone who responded to our earlier post with a guess as to how many Block O’s there are in the Ohio Union. After scouring through the building, the total number of Block O’s from the 3rd floor to the basement comes to 625. Ranging in location from the chandeliers on the ceiling to a baseball card in a hallway,
Block O’s can be found on every floor. Not only are they etched into Ohio State tradition, they are etched into the Ohio Union itself.

When visiting the Ohio Union be sure to keep your eyes peeled eyes peeled and see how many Block O’s you can find!
