School spirit traditions at The U of A

03:47 PM MST on Tuesday, September 11, 2007

By Gina Trunzo

Well, another school year is in full swing, and that means another football season is here!! I love college football season!! Whether or not you’re in college, who doesn’t love getting decked out in school colors, cheering on the team, and celebrating victory??

 

But there is so much more to football season than just the game!! For all of those traditions that you take part in each year, do you know where they came from?

 

 I did some research about a few U of A traditions. First, I wanted to know where the HUGE ‘A’ on ‘A-Mountain’ came from. And second, I wanted to learn more about our two favorite wildcats, Wilbur and Wilma! I thought maybe if I spent some time on campus, I could learn a little info...but I was mistaken! The U of A students had no idea either!! So…I did some research, and the stories I learned were so interesting!! Click HERE to learn more, and keep cheering for The Wildcats!!
