Wildcat football fans arrived early to Ryan Field to play games, eat food and hear from head football coach Pat Fitzgerald before the annual Spring Football Game on April 21, 2007. A mini-Wildcat Alley was set up on Walker Terrace an hour before the game and was open throughout the game. This fan fest area had things for fans of all ages to do, including:

  • bean bag games
  • wining prizes diving for ducks in the pond
  • football toss
  • bowling
  • face painting by the Cheerleaders
  • pictures in an official Wildcat jersey and helmet
  • giveaways from Big Ten Network
  • pizza compliments of Lou Malnati's in Evanston
  • beverages compliments Goose Island
  • winning prizes for "Guess How Many?"
  • asking Coach Fitzgerald questions about the team
  • pictures with Willie the Wildcat

Also before the game, kids in the 8th grade and under went on the field to Stretch with the 'Cats. The first 500 kids received a free "I Stretched with the 'Cats" t-shirt.

During the game fans had chances to win even more stuff with the Evanston Northwestern HealthCare T-Shirt Toss in the first half and the Chipotle Burrito Toss at halftime.

After the game all fans were invited on the field to get autographs and pictures taken with all of the Wildcats!
