I've heard a lot about this event. Each team has a "coach" who pokes fun at the other schools.

Jokes such as "Why did the UM players miss their flight for the big game? They were stuck on a broken escalator!" are told by the "coaches" to poke fun at the other schools. Apparently, FAU has "won" the last two years, but I hear that from the FAU faithful.

Who's FAU's "coach?" None other than Paul Metcalf - adviser to the Student Alumni Association/prOWLers, and one of the most spirited FAU fans out there! He's done an amazing job the past two years deflecting the other school's poking fun at FAU.

Overall, it's a great event and money goes towards a good cause.

Thought I'd pass along the info!

He's also a great pep rally leader. I remember him riling up people at the bonfire.

Yep! He's very school spirited to say the least.

Went to this last night, it was a good time. Met Burt Reynolds and big Paul Metcalf did a great job representing FAU and throwing some jabs at the other schools, as good as you can with a 1-11 football team behind ya.

Some of the highlights from last night:
What's the difference between the FAU stadium and a paperweight? $70 million dollars
Jeff Godfrey was asked by UCF to switch to WR and he left the team, wanting to continue to be a QB. He spent one weekend at FAU and…now's he's a WR for UCF.

FAR!

Palm Beach Gardens, practically in Orlando!

One I forgot: one of the roasters had worked out our offensive production from last year and the cost of our stadium and said the building is currently costing us $500,000 per point!  ;D
