We had a 6-9pm evening class one fall quarter, and at 7pm on the dot one night, one of the muslim guys announced "I'm ordering pizza for everyone!!!!!" The professor was muslim too, so we ended up having our own little iftar right there in the classroom with pizzas and breadsticks galore. From then until the end of Ramadan, about 3 weeks later, we all brought in snacks to share for after 7pm.  |
Welcome to Dearborn, Michigan.
I heard a while ago that the Dearborn football teams were going to do their 2 a days earlier in the morning and later at night this way those fasting didn't have to practice in the hot sun. I'm not sure if they are still doing this.
