For years the men of Kappa Chi have been cooking out for students after the Friday Tiger Tunes show.
“It’s always a good time after Tunes. Since everyone is excited about the show, it transfers to the event well,” said Jackson Carter, a junior mass communications major and social chair of Kappa Chi. The traditional event will have music, food and fellowship with fellow students to wind down after the second of four Tiger Tunes shows.
“We want everyone to have a blast at the cookout. The purpose is for everyone to come and hang out after the show,” said Zach Parker, a sophomore political science major.
The cookout is open to everyone on campus and there will be free hot dogs, burgers and sodas. The event will be located in Tiger Alley, between JPAC and Jones Science Center and is set to start after the Friday show. This is the first time the Kappas will host the event here. In previous years the cookout has been held at Speer Pavilion. Kappa decided to move the event this year to Tiger Alley to make the event more accessible to everyone.
Kappa Chi also encourages those students participating in the Tiger Tunes performances to wear their costumes to the cookout. The event is scheduled to last until 1 a.m.
