There is Always Something to DO!

It seems like there is always something going on around campus. You never have to be bored at UNC Asheville if you don't want to be. Last Saturday, Underdog Productions, a student run organization, planned a fun filled day on campus. Starting at noon on Saturday they hosted the superhero lawn party. It was originally suppose to be outside on the quad, but because of the rain the night before it was moved into Highsmith. This did not put a damper on the activities, there were still a lot of students having a lot of fun. Some of the activities they had planned were a big inflatable wrestling ring, inflatable basketball hoops that you could challenge a friend to see who could get the most points (I won that one ;) ), and several booths set up with different fun things to do like face painting.

There was also plenty of free pizza and drinks, and who doesn't love free food, especially when you are a broke college student!




Also that night Underdog Productions brought in some famous comedians that have been on shows on comedy central. I was really excited for this! I had watch these comedians before on TV and was excited to see them in person. The show was better then I expected, by the time it was over my stomach hurt from laughing so much. The best part was that it was free! I have been to a comedy show before in a big auditorium with my seat way in the back so the comedian looked like a little spec on the stage and paying close to 30 dollars to see it. For this show I could practically reach out and touch the comedians.

I had a great time Saturday and was able to do a lot of cool things all for no money which is great when you are in college. It is great to know that UNC Asheville offers opportunities like this pretty much every weekend!
