Ah, but the cup throwing in the stadium was so much more mature.

Adults do silly things for fun but not homecoming lol

So nailing people in the head with a plastic cup (among other things that I watched fly around that stadium, like a tray of nachos) and littering the stadium and field is just “silly adult fun”?

But having a homecoming court is somehow the height of immaturity.

Duke fans are the most obnoxious in the ACC, hands down.

And that included the drunka$$ idiots pretending to be a marching band at UVA

Really? Your universities don’t have homecoming? No one proud of attending there?

I went to wake and don’t remember the king/queen situation, and i have never been to homecoming since graduation, but that’s when they have reunions.

My friend was homecoming queen at Missouri- she’s a few years older than me.

Anyway, homecoming is definitely a thing at universities.

You know Duke absolutely *did* have homecoming queens and kings at one time, right?

Duke kids camp it in tents for weeks for bball to tickets, seems far more foolish.

Homecoming king and queen at Wake are chosen on basis to service to school, not appearance. Pro Humanitate and all that.

The world does not need more popularity contests. Gross.

I figured it was something like that. I do not remember any kind of vote.

Wondered why Wake has fallen so far in the USNWR rankings. Schools must also lose points for having meaningful student recognition.

Of all the things to complain about, this is nothing.

Ok?? So don't watch it and don't attend! So very many schools do this.

Wake fell due to lack of lower income students and lack of diversity.

Be honest - if a homecoming king and queen bother you, you weren't interested in Wake Forest in the first place.
