Chick-fil-A. High-flying dunks. Free T-shirts. Sister Jean. These are all things you can find at Rambler Madness, which is scheduled to take place on Oct. 20 at 7 p.m. in Gentile Arena. Rambler Madness is Loyola’s annual event that kicks off the basketball season and celebrates the men’s and women’s basketball teams.
The Loyola Athletics department hosts Rambler Madness, previously known as Midnight Madness, to get students excited about the upcoming basketball season and encourage them to attend the games. Midnight Madness originally marked and celebrated the point in the season when NCAA rules allowed college basketball teams to hold full-team practices.
