Hilby the Skinny German Juggle Boy Highlights Syracuse Basketball 2013 Midnight Madness

Hilby!!!

Hilby!
Hilby!

Syracuse Athletics, sometimes you get me. You really get me. This is one of those days.

First of all, the events involving Midnight Madness on October 18 have been announced:

Syracuse basketball fans can get their first look at the 2013 men's and women's squads at Orange Madness on Friday, October 18, in the Carrier Dome. ESPNU plans to carry portions of the Syracuse event as part of four hours of ESPNU Midnight Madness.

Tickets are currently available to all donors and season-ticket holders. They will be available to the general public on Monday, October 7, at 10 a.m. for $5. They can be purchased on-line at suathletics.com, by phone at (888) DOME-TIX, or in person at the Carrier Dome Box Office.

All students will be provided free entrance into Orange Madness by showing their SU or ESF student ID at Gate E. Student season-ticket holders will get an email Tuesday regarding how they reserve their ticket in the general admission student area between Aisles 107-110

After last year's concourse brawl that ended with one man being stabbed, the non-student freebies are gone in an attempt to keep out the riff-raff. Smart. If I've learned anything in life, it's that once you take the word "free" out of the equation, that eliminates a LOT of people from being interested.

But let's get down to the meat of this Midnight Meat Train. What events are planned?

Scrimmages by both the men's and women's squads.

Obviously.

A dunk contest.

Sure.

Entertainment from a nationally-known recording artist.

FYI, SU Athletics...lose Tone Loc's number on this one.

Free Orange glow sticks to fans in attendance.

OMG, SO MUCH FUN, YOU GUYS!!!

A chance at a half-court shot for a $100 gift card to the Orange Fan Shop.

Great.
