Just Flingin' In The Rain

images-1

With a 90 percent chance of rain looming, students have found many ways of coping. Honestly, if we can rage in shorts in the hail, why not rage in tanks in the rain?

According to a SPEC source, that's exactly the plan. As long as sound and stage equipment can withstand the weather, performances in the Quad and Franklin Field will go on as scheduled. Inflatable use will be a moon-bounce by moon-bounce decision; hopefully it will always be "yes." However, if the rain's too hard (Why Fling gods? Why?!), both Quad activities and the Franklin concert will be cancelled.  Check in with SPEC on Twitter, Facebook, or their website for up to date info.

So, if you're not the disappointed Girl Talk fan who goes into a depression,

1) Go off-campus: Embrace the wet t-shirt look, or head downtown for a raucous time. (Beware of slightly older guys inquiring about "the alcohol content of your drinking tin")

2) Put on your own Quad performance: The best chance you'll get to prove to all the groups that rejected you how wrong they were. Just jazz hands and those high notes!

3) Throw a house party: Invite us? Please?! We'll bring our drinking tins!
