I wonder if they will capture the disappointments as well as the excitement? At any large greek school there is always someone who opens that card who feels shattered.

I think this will be a fun opportunity to be a " fly on the wall" for anyone who has never experienced a big time SEC Bid Day! 10:00 a.m. today central time.

Is anyone seeing streaming video yet?
I expect my IPad to do everything & not have to be a tech wiz. But I am experiencing ESO issues. Which stands for "Equipment Surpassing Operator".

That one works.

Thanks! Should be a fun viewing!

I can't get on again. I get an error for the first link. Must be too much traffic.

Wow, just amazing! 94% who went to pref were matched!

Would love to hear quota numbers.

That was so much fun and offering bids to 94% is mind blowing. Kudos to them

I didn't watch. I miss Fayetteville too much. :(

....lost the feed for the video

It was a special moment to view one new Greek run to the hedges where parents were waiting. An excited young woman could not wait to show "mom" her bid card.

The announcement was 1335 bids were extended. If that is not the right number, please correct.

^^^correct. And I believe that 94% figure refers to those who attended Preference parties. Did I hear that correctly as well?

That is what was stated but 1333 bids given out is 94% of the total registered 1466 so it could have been a reference to that number which is wonderful. 94% of bid matching participants placed would have meant a 6% of SIPs which seems unlikely but you never know!

I loved that everyone participated in the chants answer the gamma chis were revealed. Wonderful sign of community!

They posted the video online on youtube.

I was there in person today- Fayetteville knows how to host a bid day! The environment was positively electric.

the daughter of one of my college friends (DDD alum) also went Delta Delta Delta yesterday at Arkansas! A very happy daughter ... AND Mom!

That is outstanding!

Did Arkansas do separate quotas this year?

Yes, I believe they did.

It's funny. You can pick out some of the cheerleaders/former cheerleaders among the Gamma Chis based on how they bounce around. LOL! :-)

I watched that whole video and all I can say is... WOW! That theater was so cool, and I've never seen so many sorority girls in one place at the same time! Everyone seemed to be happy with their bids (those that got filmed, anyway.) It looked like a lot of fun for all!
