Cal students bleed blue and gold during Big Game Week. our Marching on. The Cal Band make their entrance into the Greek Theatre for the Big Game Bonfire Rally. Although the bonfire was slightly smaller this year, Cal students still cheered and enjoyed the festivities. Pholo by Jason Chan hour of victory Big Game week proved to be quite a busy week for Cal Spirit. The Californians and the UC Rally Committee are responsible for many of the activities of the week geared to promote Cal spirit. The week started off with a bang when the popular kickoff parade was brought back from a few years hiatus. The parade marched through downtown Berkeley , headed up Telegraph Avenue and spilled into Sproul Plaza for a noontime rallv. All the spirit groups were present, and the event was even covered by the local media. • Every day of the week there was a certain function. Tuesday saw a carnival in lower Sproul Plaza, with local car dealerships showing off their automobiles. Following later in the week was the ever popular Big Game Sing off between Cal and Stanford singing groups (such as the California Golden Overtones, the Men ' s Octet, and their rivals at Stanford.) Laugh Your Axe Off, a comedy show spotlighting .some of today ' s up and coming comedians, also gave Cal students something to do. • The Spirit of the week culminated on Friday with the annual Big Game Bonfire Rally held in the Greek Theater. Although there was a controversy surrounding the size of the bonfire (which was a bit smaller this year), Cal spirit still could be felt emanating strongly from the theater crowds. Many alumni came to show their colors as well, and even a few participated in the festivities, leading the crowd of thou.sands in the traditional Cal cheers. Once Coach Gilbertsen and the team had spoken and numerous presentations were made (including a short appearance by the Axe itself) the crowd left the theater fired up for the next day ' s big match up . . . hi ) nnmv 29
