WP students will have to show a valid I.D. at the gate in order to be admitted. Upon entering the complex, students should show their I.D. cards at the Orange CRUSH table during the first quarter in order to receive a raffle ticket.
Five winning raffle ticket numbers will be announced early in the second quarter. Those lucky students with winning numbers should report immediately to the Orange CRUSH table to verify their tickets. If the winning ticket holders do not report to the table with 5:00 minutes remaining in the first half, additional ticket number(s) will be announced (as needed to complete the five-person field).
After the field is cleared at halftime, the winning contestants will enter . A football will be placed in the middle of the five-yard line. Each contestant will get two chances to kick the ball as far as they can. The distance will be measured as the spot where the ball comes to rest, and the ball must be within the lines of the playing field.
The William Paterson student with the longest kick will be declared the winner and will take home a new Wii gaming system!
