Christopher Hughes+FollowIU championship party stays outdoors—bundle up!IU’s big football championship celebration is sticking to Memorial Stadium this Saturday, even with freezing temps in the forecast. The university decided it’s better to brave the cold for a quick 30-minute event than have fans waiting in long lines indoors. Snow isn’t expected until after the party wraps up, so you’ll still get to cheer on the team and catch all the action. Just remember to dress in layers and hang out in your car until it’s go time. What do you think—worth it for the full stadium experience, or would you rather be inside? #Sports #Football #IUFootball00Share
