Spike's Army
Originally submitted by Katie Risvold, Drake University, Dec. 10, 2010.
Spike's Army is an organization that gets together for many sport events (the most popular sports being basketball and football). When a Drake student joins Spike's Army, that student is given a special 'dog tag' with a code on the back.
Events
Each Drake event is worth 100 points. When a student goes to an event, their dog tag will be scanned and they will get the points. After so many points have been obtained, students can trade in their points for prizes, such as T-shirts, free food, and other free stuff.[2]
Spike's Army also has a Facebook page]. They update information on Drake events and remind students if it's a "White-out", "Black-out", or a "Blue-Out" event. For example, Spike's Army sent out an "alert" to notify that the 2009 Jan. 17 men's basketball game was a "Blue-Out".

Signing Up for Spike's Army
It costs $10 to sign up for Spike's Army, and you get a free T-shirt and your own special coded Dog Tag when you sign up. You can sign up at any of the Drake games at the Spike's Army Rewards table, or you can stop by the Bell Center at the Drake Athletic Office. [2]
Porterhouse and Spike's Army
The bulldog who won Drake's "Beautiful Bulldog Contest" in 2009 was a dog by the name of Porterhouse. Porterhouse had tried out for the contest, and in his 4th time participating, he won. His theme for the judges was based on "Spike's Army", wearing a camouflage outfit and a Dog Tag.[1]
Spike's Army really wants to pump up the games and get Drake's students rallied up for some fun sports. Spike's Army encourages Drake students to become a bigger part of the Drake community.
