2008 Football Viewing Parties
What are they?
Dawgs who can't get to a UW football game in person and who don't want to be couch potatoes at home with ESPN can get together at locations across the country to watch the action on television. See the football schedule for the list of corresponding games - we'll continually update the schedule with which games will be on TV.
How to throw one?
It's easy. Pick a televised game, find a venue and invite your friends. The UW Alumni Association will help and will promote it online so other alumni in your area can find out. For more information, view How To Throw a UWAA Football Viewing Party (pdf file, requires Acrobat)
If you're interested in throwing a Viewing Party in your area, contact Kyle Funakoshi at 1-800-AUW-ALUM or kyfu@u.washington.edu.
