Dear Readers,<br />
Can you believe our Shockers? They have created quite a buzz around<br />
our community. When you enter into the Koch Arena on game night,<br />
you are immediately energized by the spirit and support of all the<br />
devoted fans that pack the stadium. We had a blast experiencing<br />
this level of excitement during our WSU SPLURGE! night. Meet the<br />
winners of our “Most Spirited Shocker Fan” contest on page 91.<br />
If March is the luckiest month of the year, then I think we are in<br />
for a huge March Madness celebration. Combine a little luck and<br />
prayer with the Shockers’ skills, talents and coaching and we have<br />
the recipe for success! Our SPLURGE! family wish the Shockers the<br />
greatest success!<br />
I recently experienced what being at the right place at the right time<br />
really means. While attending the WSU indoor track and field meet,<br />
I witnessed <a title="Splurge March 2012 page 1" href="http://viewer.zmags.com/publication/b9a99dae?page=1"> </a>
