You’re a Buff wherever you watch the game. Whether you’re at Folsom Field, a local restaurant or a friend’s house, help make game day welcoming for everyone. Celebrate responsibly, treat others with respect and remember that Buffs look out for their community.Ìý
If you’re celebrating off campus, keep noise and cleanup in mind. Excessive noise can result in a nuisance ticket, and you can also be fined for trash in your yard or around your property.Ìý
Hosting a gathering? You can lower your chances of receiving an expensive ticket by registering your party with Off-Campus Life. If a complaint is made about your address, party registration gives you a 20-minute warning to shut things down before police are dispatched.
