Re: Bearcat Nikki

I am sure that it started way before that.  The original RallyCats was a group that would go to the games on a bus to go to the convention center.  I know that the Shoemaker Shakers were around in the early 90s and most of my friends when I started school were running that organization.  Those are the two organizations that we based the new RallyCats on when we restarted it in 99.

It actually started in the early 90's because I was there sleeping on that hard floor in the old Lawrence Hall in 1993.  I'd say the students today have it much easier--which is why I still don't understand their 'low attendance' over the course of the last few seasons, with a few exceptions.  And 'Bearcat Nikki' wasn't the first...there were others before her time :  )
