Each dorm has a dorm color—Horton’s color is black—and the people from that dorm dress from head to toe in their appropriate color. There are some crazy costumes, too. A guy I know from Horton even dressed in a wet suit. It’s a pretty funny sight.

Before we started, Horton met up by the fountain to get psyched up. We then lined up in a line two people wide. We walked down to the gym like that and entered in silence with our right fist raised. If you can imagine, with all of the people that there are in Horton, it took quite some time. Each dorm has a designated spot on the bleachers. Lower campus takes one side of the gym and upper campus takes the other.
The Biola Eagle then rode out on a bike, the spokes of which had the dorm colors on them. The wheels were spun to determine who would play against each other for the round. There’s music blasting and it’s basically pure chaos… it’s awesome.
I spent all of my time running around to different spots to take pictures. I had so much fun doing so. I used my fish eye a lot, which was really cool.

| Horton versus Hope. |
We (Horton) ended up beating our biggest rival, Hope, but we lost to OCC (off-campus commuters) in the championship. Overall, it was a crazy fun night. Even with the ridiculous heat in the gym, you couldn’t help but have a good time.
