So how did the tradition of drinking a victory DEW under the shadows of the victory tree start?
I think the Signpost should DEW a story on the Victory Tree.

Good question OGF, can anybody shed some light on this subject?
 
I'm pretty sure the Victory tree did not exist when I was coaching there, although I did have a specific tree I used to puke on after every loss. I wonder if it is the same tree?

Will somebody that knows something please answer my f-ing question before somebody gets whacked.
 
I might know something about it...but it'll cost you a 12 pack of dew (to be shared amongst the crazies that rally round the tree).

Word on the street is that AJwildcat still has a huge stash of Dew left over from one of the football tailgate parties. Tal, maybe you could talk AJ into parting with his Dew Stash and then you could tell us the legend of the tree.

Damn You Ogden God Father!! Just because I invite you over to my palatial estate and share some of my ill-gotten dew with you does not mean that you can go and announce to the world that I have a stockpile of spare Dew. Do you not understand that Dew to Tal and Bengalhater is just like air to the rest of us. They are gonna be after my Dew like a shark after a wounded swimmer.
DAMN YOU OGF, YOU SUCK!!
 
The Victory Tree first made its illustrious appearance in the Spring of 2002. Inspired by the play of SUPAMAN. A group of Greek Lettered Men (Sigma Chi Omega Fraternity; a colony of Sigma Chi) decided that it would be an appropriate place to congregate prior to each home basektball game, so that they could enter the Dee in force and united in their brotherhood. The tree has, at time, been recognized by a purple paw, a W, and a really illegible marking made by bengalhater (he almost got arrested, but then again he was painting in the middle of the day). The tree has been a great spot to tailgate, get the crazies together, and a excellent place to park (great access to 42nd).

The Victory Dew made its first appearance after the victory over BYU in 2003, and since that time the crazies have made speeches after each home game at the tree. The tree has also been the spot where, prior to BigSky Tv and the Alumni Center, the crazies would listen to important games and tailgate.

I'm sure if Nancy Collingwood know about the tree, she'd do everything in her power to destroy it, since she hates Weber State traditions. Just saying Weber is a traditional college doesn't make it so. You have to have traditions, Greeks, Crazies, and DEW!
