Hey Buffs, how about that incredible win last week? Keep your spirits high for the first home game this Saturday...it's officially PRIME TIME and the festivities kick off right here in the downtown district!

Following the CU Athletics Meet and Greet from 6-7 PM, this Friday, September 8th, proudly parade down to the 1300 block of the Pearl Street Mall for the ultimate pre-home game celebration...the Pearl Street Stampedes!

This beloved tradition has been held in the heart of downtown for over a decade and brings the spirit of Buff Nation to life! Join the members of CU's Golden Buffalo Marching Band, Spirit Team, players and coaches as they are led by Stephen Tebo's vintage fire truck down the bricks in this one-of-a-kind pep rally that starts on the 1300 block and heads west. Stampedes happen the evening prior to each home football game!
