CSU Spirit Day, ALL DAY
This is what Homecoming is all about! It’s more than a football game; it’s more than a parade; it’s more than a bonfire. It’s the common green thread that holds us together as a community of Stalwart Rams, and today, we celebrate that! So break out all that is green and gold and sport your Ram Pride loud! Then, share it with us on social using #CSUHomecoming. Be sure to tag us too on Instagram and Facebook! Ram gear need a refresh? Check out our exclusive Fanatics Homecoming shop and treat yourself to celebrate!
