Kappa Sigma is planning on being there in full force (or, well, at least half-force...this is the same day as our big alumni golf tournament in Minden).

So, come on over to our tent before the game, and enjoy some burgers, dogs, maybe even some crawfish (it is that time of year, afterall!).

It should be a much bigger happening this year, with the Big Event being that morning, and Spring Fling going on. Most campus organizations will be in attendance, and we are looking at this as the kickoff to our 2005/2006 school year.

So again, come on over! Heck, sit with us during the game if you'd like. Very knowledgable of the game, and great people.

Also, I know some of us were talking about a little flag action before the game.

I think it'd be really cool if the Davisons cracked open, I dunno, 30 yards of that fieldturf and stuck it in that area with the inflatables and what not. If we're not gonna put it on the field, might as well get some use out of it!
