On this day a hundred years ago, they were putting the final touches on things before the opening ceremonies.
We’re doing the same today.
Bonus: Seriously, the campus is absolutely immaculate—much cleaner than it was in 1912. Even this thing is working.
A lot less grass to mow today….
I would venture a lot more, as most of what was there was mud and scrub growth.
It wasn’t as if they sodded the entire property for the opening ceremony.
There are a lot more trees today.
Makes me wonder what Rice will look like on October 9, 2112.
