The pageant allowed the finalists for Homecoming King and Queen to parade through Great Court in Mitten Hall showing off their many talents. The next day, Main Campus Program Board sponsored the first annual Night Owt which provided free BBQ, giveaways, and continuous music for dancing and a HOOT lot of fun! Fridays events were a great start to an eventful weekend. The Friday line up included an early afternoon pep rally around the Bell Tower, the Homecoming Parade, Net Night, and the highly anticipated Nas Concert. The fun did not end there! On game day, thousands of Temple students, alumni, and staff came out to the afternoon tailgate in preparation for Temple Owls game against the Western Michigan Broncos. Although the Owls suffered a close loss of 7-3, the infamous fight song T for Temple U rang through the stadium and into the streets proving that Temples spirit never dies. The whole event left the still proud fans hopeful for the same amount of fun throughout the rest of the year and crossing their fingers crossed for a win in the 2008 season.

On October 16th, 2008, Phillies fans on Temple's campus celebrated as their number one team secured their place in the World Series. After a long season, fans could finally let out a sigh of relief. For the next few days the only concern growing was over which team the Phillies would be playing. Would it be the Tampa Rays or the Boston Red Sox? Fast forward to the World Series... In the 9th inning of the 5th game, Eric Hinske of the Rays stepped up to the batters box. Two strikes later, fans everywhere held their breath. Its a swing and a miss. Game over. Phillies win the World Series! As fans jumped out of seats, chairs, couches, off the floor, and their beds, the celebration began. Thousands of people including Temple students raced to City Hall, leaving Broad Street a trampled mess. It was madness, said freshman Kelsey Ulrich. Phinally. This one word does manage to sum up the feelings of many fans, but there may be five that do it better.
