Over 260 Students, Alums & DU hockey fans showed up at Spanky's Roadhouse for a Saturday afternoon pep rally to kick off the opening of hockey season. A vast majority of attendees were students who responded to the DU Grilling Society Facebook Invitation [more photos of the event are posted on the Facebook Invite]. What does it say about a university who's most pro-active spirit organizations are its hockey blog and BBQ team?
The students had a great time designing posters to take to the game. Many of the students walked away with Spanky's gift certificates donated by DU hockey fan CO14ers. The students practiced a few cheers, chowed down on burgers and mingled with alums.
Minnesota State Senator and former DU hockey player Dave Tomassoni said a few words and reminded the students how lucky they were to witness games in beautiful Magness Arena. LetsGoDU presented Senator Tomassoni with a "Bring Back Boone" T-shirt to wear to Gopher games back home.
Thanks go out to Kent, Tom, Steve, Todd, Brenda, Nick, & Jason and the many, many others who helped promote and organize the event. The Spanky's staff was fantastic and even showed some school spirit by wearing the T-shirts and designing special "Boone Menus" for the event.
