Mizzou fans beat Kansas, too, and hungry people win

Posted on Nov. 27, 2007 by Chris Blose

Mizzou beat Kansas in more ways than one last Saturday, but in this case, fans on both sides deserve recognition for being charitable. Tigers and Jayhwawks alike contributed both money and food for a food drive sponsored by each school’s alumni association.

Mizzou fans donated the equivalent of 41,114 meals in food and cash, and Kansas fans donated an additional 19,829 meals’ worth, according to the Mizzou Alumni Association. Friendly competition in this case will help feed hungry people.
