Football traditions?

[CajunGrad94]

Actually, they have been doing this for the last few years. The earliest I can remember Baldwin's last year. I think it is an AWESOME tradition. It's fun just to watch the team and students have so much excitement.

I don't know how long they have been doing it recently, but when I was a student in the early late 80's and early 90's, the players did it after some of their wins. I agree that it is great for both players and students. I know I appreciated it at the time, because I always worked as hard as the players, cheering them on.

Can anybody tell a newcomer what some of the traditional game day activities are on campus and at the field? When the boys get off their bus (time), tailgating, etc?

Besides the great tailgating tradition and each tailgating group with its own unique traditions. . . I know of Ragin Roar the night before the game, though I think this is mainly students. Cajun Walk and Victory Run . There may be more, I'm sure there are.

Cajun Walk:

This started (3) years ago for the home games.

1:30 for 4:00PM games;
4:30 for 7:00PM games:

The team walks in warm ups from the middle of
Reinhart Dr. (mid track stadium) to the Athletic
Complex. It would be GREAT if we could get 500
folks or so, more the better to be there for this
week. Please pass it on to ALL CAJUN FAITHFUL.

Victory Run: Starts 15 minutes before kickoff and here is a Link to the evolution behind the Victory Run tradition. Late arrivers have never seen this cool event.

I can not wait to TAILGATE at Cajun Field.

Ragin Roar is actually Thursday night at 7:00 before the first home game of each year...therefore, it will be held this Thursday. Yes, it is mainly students, but there are other people there too...in general, a good time for all.

Dad17, some of the players parents meet at the tennis pavillion, it is a calmer area than some. You are certainly welcome. Don't miss the Cajun walk at 4:30. Allow time to go around and visit different fans like at the eauk(sp., I just try to be Cajunish). They and others like them are great to visit. I look forward to the tailgating atmosphere almost as much as the game.
