Pikes host a large tailgate with BBQ and refreshments before every home game, inviting alumni and friends to join the fun. Pikes and their dates traditionally enjoy the Texas-Oklahoma weekend in Dallas and this year was no exception. Several buses took brothers and dates to Dallas where they enjoyed several parties, the football game and a day at the State Fair. This year many Pikes traveled to Dallas' AT&T Stadium for the Texas- UCLA game.
