The Forecast - As IF It Matters
.jpg)
The Monon Bell weather forecast is being brought to you by Accuweather and the Grunge as a public service announcement. Partly sunny and 50 - you can't beat that for a football game in November!
(And I'm willing to bet the forecast for the telecast parties is sunny and 72 degrees...)
Then it hit me. Those of you with Bell game tickets only need the weather forecast to determine the number of layers. It's not a choice of attending or not - you'll be there. It's a matter of how many different pieces of Wabash apparel you'll need. The Bookstore can help!
Ought to be a great game - can't wait!

Monon Bell Stag - Don't Miss It!
Every year, on the Thursday evening before the Biggest game in college football, the men of Wabash and DePauw get together and roast each other at the Monon Bell Stag.
Roast is probably a kind word.
We take a brief time out to honor an alumnus of each school who personifies the Spirit of the Monon Bell - this year Wabash's award winner is Jon Pactor '71, a local Indianapolis attorney.
Then it's back to roasting.
Don't miss this year's event - it promises to be a one for the ages. Hall of Famer Jake Knott '03 is the Wabash roaster while Indiana business personality Gerry Dick, father of DePauw's quarterback, will be their roaster.
Wabash President Pat White will be joined this year by DePauw's President Brian Casey which means the Depauw guys will be out in force.
To make a reservation, simply call the Wabash alumni office at 765-361-6360 before November 5, 2009.
WAF!
