Dartmouth Homecoming Shenanigans

I somehow got on the eDartmouth mailing list and was reading up on the typical Dartmouth student behavior during Homecoming when I came upon this paragraph.

"No arrests were made at Saturday’s homecoming football game, although one student chose to “rush the field” apart from the planned field rushing, Kinne said. Six students rushed the field during last year’s game, but no arrests have been made for rushing the field since 2006.

All Class of 2012 students were once again invited onto the field during halftime, a tradition which began last year to discourage students from rushing the field illegally."

I dunno what disturbs me more...that there's a "planned, legal" time for 'shmen to rush the field or that you can call something a tradition if it's only been done for two years.

I am pretty impressed that people still "illegally" rush the field somehow.

Go Mazzucco!
