As the countdown began, numerous students waited with anticipation on Friday to get their feet wet in the Reflection Pond. It wasn’t long until everyone was having the time of their lives, drenched in water as ‘Splish Splash’ by Bobby Darin played in the background. Students’ phones were in the air catching all of the exciting footage. In addition, it was a beautiful day since the University of Central of Florida was celebrating their 50th anniversary. Students were crowd surfing in front of Milican Hall, as well as Knightro, who came prepared in his swimming trunks. Faculty stood on top of buildings, such as the library to witness the excitement over rubber ducks and free T-Shirts for the 17th Annual Spirit Splash, too. In attendance, UCF’s Spirit Squad, Marching Knights, and the 2012 Homecoming Court showed their support, as well as last years Mr. and Miss UCF. The thousands of students who chose to participate, the day was full of tradition and fun whether or not they skipped a class or wanting to be apart of history.
