Couch Cru!!

So every Saturday afternoon, around four-ish, a group of young, dedicated youngsters from the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor gather in Van Circle, in their trucks, cars, vans, buses and proceed to ride around the city of Belton screaming, honking, and holding up the CRUsader sign. Campus and Belton police have the roads blocked off, much to the dismay of blue-collar workers headed home to their families, and wave back, holding their Crusader sign proudly. This would be called... Campus Run. : )


Here we have our Couch Cru leaders in the front truck, Tatenda with his Zimbabwe attire and UMHB studded clothes, and of course the flags... : ) Next one is of our car this latest time. Garrett and Yager came down this weekend and fell in love with the place, they both want to come back soon : ).

There really are no road laws during campus run since all of the roads are blocked off, so people drive on the wrong side of the road, honk really loud, throw frisbees in the Baucom's front yard... stuff like that. : ) After Campus Run is over, we meet up at the field and welcome the football team into the stadium. We'll wait for the game to start, run across the field and then form a line for the boys to run through out onto the field.

We then return back to our designated section in the endzone where we shake propane tanks full of gravel and coffee can shakers (Courtesy FYC!!) making as much noise as humanly possible. : ) Needless to say most of us have headaches after the game. : ) Here's a few pics from one of our games.


The Couch CRU. : )

Couch CRU Captains. : ) They run the show... Tatenda's on the end as the Couch CRU Captian's Captian : )
The Crusader Sign. Learn it. Love it. Live it. : )

UMHB is now 3-0, ranked number 3 in the country, with a point differential of 49 in our favor. : ) We play our arch-rivals the hardin-sinners cowgirls this week. : )

Miss everyone back in the Pearl!
