Fallapalooza came and went last friday night and early returns say it was pretty much awesome.  The gymnatorium was absolutely packed with people by the time the curtain opened.  We ran out of chairs and some of the audience had to start pulling in seats from the cafe.  If you didn’t make it, you missed it, but here’s a quick recap for you.

The night also featured an amazing improv bit by Eric and Elic Bramlett where Eric just could not figure out that he loved to squeeze his socks.

Big props to the Arts Directors and the campus bands for doing such an amazing job, the video team for another incredible year of videos, Tony Germann for pulling it all together, and to Eric for being the monkey.  Below are some blurry pictures for your enjoyment.  Let’s do this again next year.
