Anthrax scare at Florida State University

I don't know if this is real or not. My mother sent me this email, and I thought I would share it with you all!

Anthrax scare at Florida State University:
17 OCT 2006

Seminole football practice was delayed nearly two hours today after a
player reported to Offensive Coordinator Jeff Bowden that he had
found an unknown white powdery substance on the practice field.
Head Coach Bobby Bowden immediately suspended practice while police
and federal investigators were called to investigate. After a
complete analysis, FBI forensic experts determined that the white
substance unknown to Jeff Bowden and the players was the goal line.
Practice was resumed after special agents decided the team was
unlikely to encounter the substance again.
Rely upon God with all your heart, do not rely on your own insight. ~ Proverbs 3:5
