The evening featured free T-shirts and foam Wildcat paws, waterproof Bluetooth headphones for the winner of the "Wearing the Most Red" award and a fitness watch for the "Knockout Game" victor. Raffle tickets were sold to faculty/staff for a free Fitness Center membership, with proceeds donated to the American Heart Association.
