Join us for this time-honored tradition and
spend a weekend with your student Wolfpack-style!
Friday,
September 26
Family
Field Days
Harris Field
6:00 p.m.
Kick off the weekend student-style! Go
head to head with other families in fun
field-day events, such as a rowdy game of
NC State trivia or the popular pie-eating
contest. Play to win! Some lucky players
are going home with cool prizes. Catch
an energy boost and chow down on
popcorn and cotton candy during all the
fun. Great fun for siblings, parents – the whole family. Sponsored by the Inter-Residence Council. FREE!
Comedy
Bonanza
Campus Cinema, Witherspoon Student Center
8:00 p.m.
Ever wonder how to put that philosophy
class to work on stage? Comedy
Central’s Tom Simmons has mastered
the task. Appearing on Showtime, BET,
NBC, and in Comics on Duty in Iraq
and Afghanistan, Simmons will make
you look at world issues a little differently
laughing all the way. Then, VH1’s
“I Love the 80’s” Marianne Sierk shows
she learned a thing or two in drama class
with stand-up worthy of Comedy
Central’s “Live at Gotham,” and NBC’s
“Comics Unleashed.” Brought to you by the Union
Activities Board. PG-13. Tickets
subject to lottery
distribution. Register
by September 3
for best prices.
