The event will be hosted by the Green and Gold committee, and emceed by Dr. Joe Dennis. “I don’t know what to expect. We have never done anything like this before, but I can guarantee that it will be a fun night,” said Dr. Dennis.
“I am very excited to see what Dr. Dennis cooks up!” said Eric Edmonson, a senior sports communications major.
