Homecoming Pre-game Luncheon

Cost: $10 Entry Fee* (children 12 & under are free)

All Pioneer Students are welcome and can eat free with student ID!

Kick off Game Day the Pioneer way at the Homecoming Luncheon, one of the most beloved traditions of the season! This pre-game celebration is where alumni, students, families, faculty, staff, and community members all come together to share food, fun, and Pioneer pride before heading into the big game.

The Luncheon has something for everyone:

• Food & Fun: Enjoy a hearty meal while listening to live music, playing lawn games, and watching kids light up with face painting and activities just for them. It’s the perfect chance to relax, mingle, and celebrate with the entire Pioneer community.

• Game Day Spirit: Students can stop by for their official game day face paint — free of charge — making sure they’re fully decked out in Pioneer colors before heading to the stands.

• Exclusive Freebies: Thanks to our friends at Culver’s, we’ll be handing out 500 free cups of custard! A sweet treat to keep you cool and energized for game day.

• Limited Rally Towels: Be among the first 300 guests to score a Homecoming rally towel, perfect for waving in the stadium to cheer on the Pioneers. Supplies are limited, so make sure to arrive early!

• Show Your Western Spirit: Pick up a foam cowboy hat (available for purchase for $20) and add some flair to your Homecoming outfit, keeping with this year’s western theme.

This family-friendly event has quickly become the ultimate way to start game day where great food, live entertainment, Pioneer gear, and campus spirit all come together in one unforgettable afternoon!
