Apparently, the friendly rivalry between students and alums from Marquette University and the University of Wisconsin does not end on the basketball court.
After Marquette students received some national attention for the "Raynor Rave" that Jeff Sherman wrote about last week, several e-mails flooded into my inbox proclaiming "Only in Madison" and displaying a photo of the snowball stunt pictured above.
At first, I wondered if someone had gotten clever with Photoshop. Then, I saw this YouTube video, which shows that the giant snowball preceded the Raynor Rave.
You've got to hand it to those crazy college kids, don't you? They know how to blow off steam during finals.
What's the best prank you pulled in college? I'd list mine here, but some of the investigations are still open.
