"Flashback" Homecoming set for Oct. 27

Everything old is new again.

From disco and bell-bottoms to mullets and break dancing, the 1970s and 1980s are back as the "Flashback" theme for Homecoming Week 2007.

Reserved tickets cost $13; general admission tickets are $11 for adults and $5 for those 18 years of age and under. A family pack of four tickets, plus four hot dog vouchers, costs $30.

"Homecoming is our favorite time of the year to welcome back our alumni," said Vicki Reaume, executive director of alumni relations. "There are so many wonderful things planned this year that will attract the interest of our loyal grads."

A pre-game Athletics tailgate is scheduled at Eagles' Landing from noon to 3 p.m. at Oestrike Stadium. Entry to the tailgate requires a game ticket or valid EMU student ID.

"We're finding big increases each year in the number of student organizations hosting tailgates for their members, friends and alumni," said Melissa Ginotti, director of Campus Life. "We expect this year we'll see the largest numbers ever."
