Requests for Alamo Bowl
Photos and Stories


From the mailbag, we have two important requests directed to Wildcat fans who traveled to the Alamo Bowl.

First, from the editors of Northwestern Magazine:



Northwestern Magazine Is Looking for Alamo Bowl Fan Photos


We're putting together a photo essay on the bowl game for the upcoming spring issue, and we need shots of the atmosphere in San Antonio. If you have "purple" photos from the alumni tour, the tailgate or the game, please send your best shots to s-hargadon@northwestern.edu.

Thanks. Go 'CATS!

Senior Editor




Second, Go Cats Go is rounding up stories of Alamo Bowl travel woes to compile and send to NU:

If you made it to San Antonio, odds are you or someone you know had a travel nightmare [due to the weather].
 
Wildcat fans scrambled to find any mode of transportation to get to the River City by kickoff. I want to hear your story.
 
How was your travel impacted?
How long was your total delay?
How did you end up getting to San Antonio?
What were your extra out-of-pocket expenses?
 
Please take a moment to write a description of your experience in 200 words or less and sign with your name and graduation year.
 
If our athletic department has a collection of stories, it will only help for future bowl considerations. It shows we'll go to any length to support the program. The purpose is to display the dedication of Wildcat fans under extraordinary circumstances.
 
Please e-mail your stories directly to: alamotravelstory@yahoo.com.
