Tucson Time Capsule : September snowman at UA

Tucson, Arizona | Published: 09.08.2008
When a group of Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity brothers went to Fort Collins, Colo., for a football game, the members brought back lots more than memories of the Wildcats' victory over Colorado State. They brought back 4 tons of snow. And what better to do with snow on a mild September day than to build a snowman in front of the University of Arizona Student Union. On Sept. 8, 1973, the group put the finishing touches on its creation.
