Yeah, Bates! Excited fans tackle Maury the Mule

Last Saturday marked the annual match up with our bitter
rival, Colby. The players showed up with their game faces on, and the Bates
fans were as rowdy as ever. During a heated moment in the afternoon, one
eyewitness described a golden, pony-tailed Bates student making a brilliant
open-field tackle on Maury the Mule (Colby's mascot). This stunt set the tone
for the day, as the Bobcat players fed off the fans' enthusiasm. Although
Colby enthusiasts far outnumbered Bates followers, our voices quickly drowned
out any Colby support. The conspicuous Bates fan presence showed as we lined
the sidelines hooting, hollering and heckling for our teams. Congratulations
to everyone who made the trip up to Colby ... but our job is not done yet.
Bowdoin has heard about our lively fans and plans to attend the games on
Saturday in multitude. Come be a part of our cheering section this weekend, as
the golden pony-tailed Bobcat leads the charge.
