I know that a lot of you will likely be heading to the game on Friday and so I wanted to give you details on an event that will be happening at Ross-Ade Stadium prior to the game, and during the game if you’ve got tickets. Purdue is bringing in a number of vendors who do original licensed material to the stadium to showcase their newest stuff. They even promise exclusive items will be available. The list includes some names you might know. That includes Section 103 who sponsors the Boiler Alert podcast and whose items I’ve linked to on here before. Then there’s Left Grain which is actually a company started by a friend of mine from college who also happened to be our wedding photographer. I have one of her Purdue hats and it’s my absolute favorite hat right now. Check out the details in the release from Purdue:
The Boilermaker Fashion Showcase on Friday, Oct. 16, is a premium, Purdue-branded shopping opportunity offering new and exclusive merchandise designed and curated with passionate Boilermaker fans in mind.
The showcase will be held in Ross-Ade Stadium’s south end zone patio before and during the 8 p.m. game against Washington. The general public can attend from 5-6:15 p.m., and the event will be open exclusively for game attendees from 6:30 p.m. until the end of the third quarter.
Officially licensed brands participating include:Vianne Clothing

Purdue Pete will also be in attendance and available for pictures. Make sure to head to Ross-Ade to support the team and these licensed vendors. This is NOT a sponsored post it’s just a cool event that I don’t recall Purdue doing in the past. I’m not familiar with some of these brands so I’m interested to see what they’ve got to offer. I’ll be there and maybe I’ll see you there!
