Ohhh...Muncie

It is Homecoming Weekend at Ball State and that means a number of things, such as the annual bed races. Today was the 25th annual bed races on Riverside Drive and there were about 35 teams that completed. The teams represented everything from fraternities and sororities to random on campus academic groups.

It was a beautiful day for bed races and the turnout was very impressive. I'd say most of the the 1/4 mile course was lined about 4 or 5 deep with students and on-lookers. We stuck around for about an hour, but I guess they'll be going on for hours until one champ is crowned.
