Title: Homecoming
Post by: valpopal on September 28, 2013, 12:11:20 AM
Unlike a number of years in the past, the weather for homecoming is excellent this year with clear skies and temperatures reaching the 80s during the day. Consequently, conditions are ideal for the many events taking place around campus, including Friday night's fireworks display. For those who couldn't be here this time around, I post the following photograph:

Nice clip.  The crowd at the FB game 50 years ago (cars and Brown Field without a press box looked like it was more like 60+) was pretty impressive.

Are you sure the descent into middle America won't be too hard on you? It will be like suddenly appearing on the island in Lost.   ;D
