So I was thinking today, Michael Jordan makes a slam dunk, and it gets pictured on the side of a Wheaties box. Who agrees, That UVA or JHU deserved a slap on the box for there undefeated season, I mean how cool would that be? Also, it would be huge for the sport. I was just thinking, it would be sick!

It's not like MJ only made 1 slam dunk... if JHU and UVa could do this year after year, then maybe... until then, keep dreaming.

I think that whoever makes Wheaties (General Mills?) has the ability to run off a limited series of special boxes. If they ever did such a thing for UVa, distribution would be limited to Virginia or, at most, a few mid-Atlantic states. I have a limited edition Wheaties box for Virginia Tech, so I know it has been done. Also, many years ago, they printed boxes for Cal Ripken. The market for those in, say, Los Angeles, couldn't have been extensive, so it would likely not be possible to find them far beyond Baltimore.
