traditions legacy rytng the Florida State is full of rich tradi- tions. I personally have been thrown in the fountain on my birthday and look forward to returning the favor to my friends each year. Seeing the stadium ful l of thousands of my closest friends doing the chop makes the games that much more excit- ing. Each tradition increases your sense of Seminole pride and school unity. -Kelli Wheeler, freshman Ryan Strauss signs bats and balls for fan day. It is a common Seminole tradition to host a fan day for their dedicated fans once a year before the season com- mences. It is a common misconception that only football has a fan day but all teams partake in this traditional event. After an away victory a piece of the opposing team ' s feild is brought back to FSU and given a proper burial. Each one is marked by a plaque that has the date opposing team and score. iiiil i MtiiBiiiiifiiuRilii ItlllllfilllJUl 12 student life Michelle Rotella, Julie Dipiazzza, Rachael Weed and Brigitte Nelson-Palmer carry on the trad Hon of being thrown into the fountain on your birthday.
