Mizzou Homecoming

Homecoming is one of the most exiting time on campus. You see decorations everywhere and learn that it is not just a campus event but a whole city event. Many would agree that it is a great time to be apart of an organization on campus. if one is in a fraternity or a sorority then they can vouch that it is amazing. The many weeks of physical labor that they had to put with pomping and building floats. If one was to look around Columbia's down town area than they would see the many store front widows that have been decked out. The decorations give the area of a tiger Christmas. The pictures of Truman were everywhere one store had a picture of him saying " Mizzou wants you" as though he was Uncle Sam.

Another awesome sight was the many different decorations showing Colorado as a meal for the hungry tigers. At all the dining halls buffalo burgers were served. Along with that they had chilly that was to die for and a foot long hot dog that was top class. They were fairly delicious if I may so so myself. not only was the food decorative but so was the environment. Rollins dining hall was decked out with anything and everything Mizzou. they had pictures of half eaten buffalo on the sneeze guards as well as paw prints everywhere.

It was a great sight to behold. Anyway the energy on campus was great and could not be duplictated. The most amazing point about thing that not many know about the importance of Homecoming is that it was started here at Mizzou more than one hundred years ago. So the celebration has to be bigger and better than the previous year. So when it come to going all out for Homecoming few come even close to the greatness that the Mizzou Homecoming.

There are many things that I love about Mizzou and Homecoming is at the top of the love it list. You just can't help but to be taken over by the energy that is given off by the overwhelming school spirit. It makes the filling of being here greater than one would ever expect. The activities that one experiences but one week a year can make their stay here all the better.
