CARBONDALE, Ill. - Saluki fans enjoyed some fun and interaction with the team at the Saluki Football Fan Fest on Friday night at Saluki Stadium.

Saluki players, coaches, cheerleaders, shakers and mascots welcomed fans to the stadium for a host of activities for the whole family, including autograph and photo sessions.

Kids and adults had a chance to dress like a Saluki by trying on shoulder pads, helmets, jerseys, gloves and cleats. Players led drill stations, teaching fans the finer points of their positions. There was a Punt, Pass and Kick contest, and the little kids enjoyed the inflatables.
