[quote quote=29988]Actually, I love the idea of an “event” game like that. I would have it on a non-holiday weekend, preferably during the warmer months against a notable OOC opponent. I would have it at 7:00 on a Saturday and have the entire day build up to it. Think of Yankee Stadium (while blocking out the result) on a smaller basis. Perhaps soccer games in the afternoon followed by orchestrated parties (perhaps at Ulrich or Stabler), special invites to alums etc. Of course this will require lighting well beyond the actual stadium.
Any of that seem reasonable?

I like it, but I’m not a kid on campus:
Morning XC meet, soccer game(s), bands, football, dance, dunk tanks, carnival atmosphere, food/gourmet coffee free w/meal plan swipes — daylong LU freshmen fall festival.
BTW: I think LFN is right on internationalization of sports on TV Saturday afternoons. It’s what I watch if I’m free on Saturdays, and I’m old and don’t play EA FIFA like these kids do.
