Did the Big Ten publicly smack down a gossip blogger? Looks like it. Ouch.

This, ladies and gentlemen, is why Twitter is teh awesomest invention since Al Gore invented innerwebs. Gossip blogger Clay Travis found a Craiglist ad purporting to recruit fans to attend the inaugural Big Ten Championship Game, set for Saturday evening in Indianapolis, Indiana and tweeted a link to his site.

The Big Ten disputed that suggestion, and publicly called Travis out via its own Twitter account:

It’s impossible to tell who’s behind the Craigslist ad or whether the offer is real. For all we know, this could be a prank by a crafty SEC fan. IBCR loves a good troll job, but it wasn’t us, I swear!
