UD…Land of Green Ice

The UD Alumni Relations Blog has seen some crazy things in our day: a birthday party for dogs, a bear that can climb a ladder (and eat you), Steve Vai album covers.

But nothing prepared us for the shock of seeing the surface at the University of Delaware’s Fred Rust Ice Arena turned green.

After we were assured that this was not the beginning of the alien invasion, we stop screaming long enough to realize the new surface looked pretty cool. Having always wanted to be slimed throughout our childhoods, falling on green ice was pretty close for the blog.

Painting the ice took 15 hours and James Kaden, manager of UD’s ice arenas, said, “Everyone was excited about painting the ice for the holidays. If this is well received, we may look to expand to other events and/or holidays.”

May we humbly suggest going with hot pink or a flames motif in the future.
