Even though they teach it at BGR every year, the "unpublished" words of "Hail Purdue!" are "Fire Up!" and not "Boiler Up." So it goes something like this: "...Ever greatful, ever true, thus we raise our song anew, FIRE UP, of the days..." I know, it's a band nerd thing, but seriously it was that way long before the phrase "Boiler Up" ever existed.
That being said, the weather in West Lafayette today is gorgeous. Let's hope this weather is here to stay. Yesterday at band practice, I was able to march to the field and learn halftime drill. However, due to the nature of my injury, I did not participate in Pregame practice, but instead Ian learned my spot. I plan on marching this weekend in everything BUT pregame on the field. I will fill a Game Day Staff position for that performance.
Come see the Boilermaker football team take on the Toledo Rockets this Saturday at Noon!
