Homecoming

E was in the U of I Homecoming Parade last night. She rode on this float her sorority and brother engineering fraternity, Sigma Phi Delta, created. The school is playing Wisconsin today in the Homecoming Game so that's Bucky the Badger hanging from the crane. At some point in the parade, E said the badger fell and the float ran over it. At first, she said, they all screamed, but then the crowd started cheering as if that was suppose to happen so they all went along with it.

E's sorority with the float after the parade. Note the missing Bucky.

Here's the float with Bucky intact.

Here is E and some of her sorority sisters posing with a Chief Illiniwek.
