8 Things UK Fans Will Miss About Caturdays
Emily Baehner

Winter is approaching, and that means one very upsetting thing--the end of college football season. The University of Kentucky Wildcats last home game signals the last opportunity for students and fans to experience the wildly-popular and loved "Caturday." For a year where the Kentucky Wildcats, led by Mark Stoops have gone 9-3 in the regular season (to the surprise and delight of the entire school and fan base) this means the end of an extremely successful year, and on to winter sports. And as excited as fans are for basketball season, they will mourn the end of their Saturday football experiences, at least until next season. Here are eight things UK fans will miss about their beloved Caturdays.

The fashion

All blue everything. Jean jackets, UK crop-tops, face tattoos, blue dresses. UK girls have it all.

The tailgate spread

Beautiful weather and a spread of food and drinks is key to any successful UK football game.

House banners

They blanket houses up and down State Street and the surrounding vicinity.

UK Football fans love when the "sun shines bright" on their football field.

Watching the Wildcat do pushups when we score

Counting out loud and then screaming the C-A-T-S cheer.

Free pom-poms

So you can cheer on your Cats!

The student section

Huddling for warmth when its cold, and all dancing in unison to "Grove Street" when the Cats score.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
