The Traditions
Army game days are steeped in tradition that predates most college football programs. The Cadet March-On, where the entire Corps of Cadets parades onto the field before kickoff, is a spine-tingling spectacle.

Pregame Rituals
After every Army score, cadets drop for pushups equal to the total points scored. The Alma Mater is sung with arms locked after the game, win or lose.

In-Game Moments
The iconic Army Mule mascots patrol the sidelines, and parachute teams occasionally drop into the stadium with the game ball. For the ultimate experience, attend the Army-Navy game's watch equivalent โ€” or better yet, a rivalry game at Michie.

PRO TIP
Stay after the game to watch both teams sing their alma maters to the crowd โ€” it's an emotional tradition unique to service academy football.
