From the wonder of seeing the colorful BJC for the first time to the different ways in which one can experience it, we looked at THON through the eyes of a freshman and a senior.
Ask any dancer and they'll talk you through their weeks of cardio, diet, and endurance preparations for the big weekend. Some THON participants, prepare their bodies in a slightly different way. This THON preparation only takes a half hour and some clippers or trimmers.
Playing everything from Blink-182 to Kings of Leon, the cover band Whiskey Business pleased the crowd with a good mix of rock favorites perfect for sing-alongs.
THON Committees are a great way to help both students and family spectators find their way around during the weekend. Whether the deliriousness is starting to roll in or some people truly do not know to get from Gate A to B, some committee members from Rules and Regulations weighed in on questions they have been asked throughout the night.
Check out our interactive map to see where people are keeping up with THON around the world.
