Splish Splash, UCF homecoming tradition is at top of Orlando sports bucket list!

Running off at the typewriter …

If there is a bucket list for Orlando sports experiences, I'm convinced I enjoyed the No. 1 item on that scroll Friday afternoon when I took part in the utterly thrilling, chilling, invigorating, exhilarating UCF Spirit Splash — a homecoming tradition like no other.

About 15,000 of my closest friends and I charged into the famous Reflecting Pond in the middle of UCF's campus as the marching band, cheerleaders and coach Scott Frost and his football team cheered us on. We were having so much fun splishin' and splashin' and movin' and groovin' and rantin' and chantin', Frost even confirmed to me that he might even jump in the pond next year.
