i also was at hampton's homecoming this weekend. the campus looked great and the student union building is tight. stepshow was cool (deltas won), traffic was outrageous getting onto and off campus saturday. i saw some outfits that are embedded in my memory. some clothes can't be meant to fit that tightly and lessons should be given in how to walk in heels.

Yeah, I was there!
 

Let's just say that I only have had 5 hours of sleep. :eek:
Let's just say that I am tired as all get out!


HC the only reason I logged on was to give you the results of our step show and to tell you how I had a wonderful time seeing many of my LSs. Some of them I hadn't seen in like 8 years! :eek:

I did see one of our GC Sorors. She's not a regular, though.I hadn't seen her in yearrrrrrrrs.

Hello to all and greetings from an Iota Man. I am posting in regards to the FAMU Homecoming stepshow. The team that one were the Iotas from the Gamma Omicron Chapter (University of Florida), not FAM (although there is a chapter there).

I recently graduated from Univ. of Florida and we have half of our show recorded. ClassyLady we can step with the best of them, unfortunately there aren't enough of us YET to attend all the stepshows that take place. Actually we are known as the top step steam in the state of Florida.

Now PinkIvy, if you ever get a copy of the tape could you doub one for me (I'm willing to pay). Although I am a native Tallahassean, I did not have time to see my chapter bruhs step and unfortunately they only taped half of their show :-(

my email addy is centaurianpride@hotmail.com

Thanks!

LOL...did you see the girl with the short skirt & fishnet panyhose???...I saw her first, then my girlfriend..I was like "no comment"...all I could think of was Morris Day & the Time's "Fishnet...black pantyhose...." And, to tell you the truth, I had on some high heel boots that I was workin' EARLY in the day..but, after walking all over that dayum campus my poor tootsies were screaming in pain! :D

Hampton Homecoming Goers
 

What is up with these outfits? Hampton never went out like that while I was there! Hampton has always been on the side of class and not crass. Was it a local or a student attired in this matter?

Hampton U.
'98

Hmm...Yep...she might have been a local...
 

I don't know...she may have been a local...b/c she was standing all alone...just kind of looking around...po thang...:( & I agree with you on us Hamptonians reppin' with class, not crass...when my friends from high school & I applied (back in the day) to Hampton...everybody thought we were lying when we told them we had to send a photo of ourselves with our application...Are they still doing that?? This one guy I know said that he believed us after visiting "the Home by the Sea"...b/c he said he didn't see not one ugly person on the entire campus! (LOL!)

Morehouse/Spelman Homecoming 2001
 

The theme this year was "School Daze"..SGA did a pretty good job of setting up homecoming activites. The highlight of the week was definitely the homecoming concert with so many BIG-NAME acts I couldn't possibly list them all here.

The stepshow was ok..I 've seen better.

The Alphas held it down as usual, but on the women's side the AKAs were robbed of a trophy and $2000 by the Deltas....ask anybody who was there.

Alias:

I was there and although I am biased and happy that my Sorors won, I can be woman enough to say that the AKAs step team was tight as all get out. Robbed may be a little harsh as the step team themselves have nothing to do with the fact that they won the show. I just KNEW that the AKAs won the show after they stepped. Up to that point I felt DST had it hands down considering the first team that stepped.

Perhaps it is because the AKAs didn't appear to have incorporated the theme into the step. Most teams wore attire that was incorporated into whatever theme was chosen (apparently School Daze). AKAs, clean as they were, stepped in skirts and heels. Who knows what the criteria were.

I didn't know the theme was School Daze. I really had a hard time following the theme as people were incorporating themes from movies, etc.

Overall, I was pleasantly surprised. I felt the show could have been better myself but it was the first time I had ever been to a Morehouse/Spelman Homecoming so I didn't have a frame of reference for comparison.

yeah, i saw her, while i was in the student center, eating lunch. there were guys all around me and not one of them thought her outfit was appropriate for anything but hookin'. i don't know if she was a hu student or an outsider, but she sure was a conversation piece. after all i saw that weekend, i'm convinced there should be classes on how to walk in heels.
