Celebrating football without drawing a foul

The University of Ottawa has been working with its partners to ensure that this year’s Panda Game and its celebrations are carried out according to the rules. 

Grab your Gee-Gees hoodies and your friends and enjoy the game! But please, play by the book! 

That means being mindful of our neighbours' properties and homes so we can keep the Panda tradition without drawing a foul. 

And this season, let’s party safer. If you are drinking, remember to eat, hydrate, and have a plan to get your friends and yourself home safely. And please stay from residential neighbourhoods for pre-and post-game partying. We’ve got events happening on University grounds before and after the game!  

If you or someone you know consumes drugs, learn how to recognize and respond to an overdose and inform yourself on safer use tips. This could save a life. Pick up a free Naloxone kit at a pharmacy near you or order them online. Visit StopOverdoseOttawa.ca for more info.
