If you have been to any Storm games lately, you may have noticed a group of college students taking over the on-ice promo- tions and intermission events. The S.A.M Club members assist the marketing and promotions team for the Storm with events that occur before, after and during the game. They set up promotions tables used by other businesses, information tables, and promotion kiosks and stands. The group also participates in the events during intermission of the game. Saturday’s game included Chuck-A-Puck where fans tossed pucks onto the ice and the S.A.M Club members where on the ice ready to pick them up. Tossing t-shirts and being on the prize delivery patrol are other duties for the members on the Storm promotions team. Senior Jay Steadman, ex-president of the S.A.M club and Syracuse athletic director hopeful, considers the S.A.M Club a great organization to gain experience and professional contacts in the athletic world. He says, “S.A.M Club is a place where I can be with people who share my interests in athletics. It also provides opportunities most people normally wouldn’t have to get out and talk to professionals in the sports world.” North Platte junior Brett Orr has similar feelings: “I joined S.A.M Club to meet people who can give me opportunities in the future. The people in S.A.M Club are also a really fun group.” The Sports Administration Majors Club is not exclusively for sports administration majors. Minors in sports administration, as well as anyone with a love of sports who sees athletics in their future, is invited to join.

By ROBYN SANDERS ANTELOPE STAFF WRITER

Lip syncing was a popular event at Homecoming 2004 - even Chancellor Doug Kristensen showed up to watch teams compete in “You'll Never Forget Kearney.” Eleven sororities, fraternities, residence halls, and campus orga- nizations competed. “This doesn't happen anywhere else in the state; I'm the luckiest man in the world because I get to work with all of you,” Chancellor Kristensen said. Gamma Phi Beta and Pi Kappa Alpha won the competition and received a trophy. They performed to “Everybody Dance Now,” “Wheels Keep on Turning,” “Heard It Through the Grapevine,” “Celebrate Good Times” and “I Had the Time of My Life.” Martin and Case halls received second place and a trophy. They danced to 'Lets Get It Started,” cleaned to “Dirty” by Christina Aguilera, shook their Polaroid picture to Outkast's “Hey, Ya” and imitated an American Idol performance with the song “She Bangs” by Ricky Martin. Mantor Hall received third place and a trophy for its depiction of high school graduation through college graduation. The residents danced to Madonna's “Like a Virgin” for the freshmen year of col- lege; “Girls, Girls, Girls” and “Where's the Party At” - with a sign reading liquid diet for the sophomore year; “Let's Get Physical,” as they were working to lose the freshmen 15 pounds; and they held up a sign reading “Finally 21” as they danced to the Cheers theme song and “In Da Club” by rapper 50 Cent.

By SILVIA MARTINEZ & JULIA STUMKAT ANTELOPE STAFF WRITER Celebrating diversity by bringing cultural awareness with their float to the Kearney community was the goal of The International Student Association (ISA), which par- ticipated in the Homecoming Parade. The results of the parade competition were announced after the football game. ISA members were delighted to hear that their float entry is this year’s winner. For many international stu- dents, homecoming is a new experience. “Most of us don’t do parades in our own countries," Omar Ghamedi, president of the ISA, said. Happy Macwan, one of the ISA public relations officers, said, “I did not know about homecoming; there is nothing like that in India.” Something similar to this celebration in India would be “the freshman party to welcome freshman students,” Macwan said. “This party is celebrated during the first year of college and Mr. and Mrs. Freshman are elected.” Macwan, an advertising major, said, “This is the first time I was at the parade.

Kearney, next door to Tex’s Café, owner Mary Ann McCuiston made one thing very clear. “I am not a pawn shop, I am a swap shop,” McCuiston said. Reason being that, pawn shops charge interest on items being sold, and McCuiston does not. “I am an honest lady who buys, sells and trades off the street,” the Swap Shop owner explained. In 1997 the Swap Shop was introduced to Kearney. The only difference was its loca- tion, across the street from where it is now, next to the new bar Lumberg’s. McCuiston moved to Kearney to open a bookstore, This but the college kids wanted a video store.
