The UI Audubon/Cinnabon Association (UIACA) is planning for a huge introductory event this Monday, April 19, at the spring football game at Memorial Stadium. They are leading the charge to have the Kingfisher approved as our new mascot. The UIACA will be releasing 1000 Kingfishers at game time to fly over the stadium. What a sight this will be! Especially since the game will be broadcast on the B1G Network.
One problem. Apparently, the Kingfisher is a species more susceptible to pooping in flight. There is great fear several of these magnificent birds will relieve themselves, with their "cargo" potentially landing on our new head football coach and his staff, not to mention the Illini Nation. This is UNACCEPTABLE! Were this to happen the UIACA fears their hopes of the Kingfisher being approved by the Board of Trustees will die (along with several birds who may be shot as a result).
The UIACA needs your help! Please pass the word to anyone you know who might be attending to WEAR A HAT or BRING AN UMBRELLA!!
Thank you in advance
