Marshall University students, faculty and community members will destroy a car painted in Rice University’s blue and silver colors during WMUL-FM’s 10th annual car bash Wednesday, Oct. 12.
The car bash, part of homecoming activities, will take place from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Buskirk Field on the Huntington campus. Rice is Marshall’s opponent Saturday in the homecoming football game, which starts at 3 p.m. at Joan C. Edwards Stadium.
In celebration of the 10th anniversary of the car bash, a 24-foot limousine will be pounded this year.
“The car bash is a tradition WMUL is proud of keeping on Marshall’s campus for 10 years,” Station Manager Leannda Carey said. “It’s not something you’ll see just anywhere.”
WMUL, Marshall’s public radio station, will provide sledgehammers, gloves and goggles. All participants will need is one dollar and a little homecoming spirit.
“We all know homecoming is a time for a little trash-talking on the opponent,” Carey said. “So we like to help students channel that aggression into something a little more fun.”
The dollar admission fee will get participants access to two car-bashing minutes with the limo.
