Rennell ’07 hosted the event, now in its second year, armed with a megaphone in one hand and an air horn in the other. Four teams squared off at the MAC Quad for the honor of “top-dog,” outfitted in various themed clothes. The shirtless Sigma Alpha Epsilon Juggernauts sported yellow and purple body paint, the Hawaii Club brought the luau, the Mountaineering Club donned bright yellow...
