The SIMPSON COLLEGE "YELL LIKE HELL"!
...that's right, one of the biggest & most fun Homecoming events on campus! It's an absolute blast and was one of my favorite events as a student because it's a time when everyone is packed into Hopper Gym and you can truly hear & feel the Simpson Storm Spirit from the entire campus community!
Any student organization from the Greek houses to the women's basketball team can put together a cheer, chant, or dance to present in front of the audience and judges. Most of them come in some sort of costume and have spent hours on rehearsing - pride is the prize & it's a big one here! They vote on the top three groups. Yell Like Hell is also the night where the Homecoming King & Queen are crowned, as well as the cheer and dance teams perform.
I thought of this blog topic because I ran across a few of the groups on You Tube. I was so excited, since I was traveling during the Homecoming this year. It was fun to watch & I wanted to share 'em with you. They're posted below the pictures. Perhaps someday, it will be YOU helping your group take home 1st place...
