A: The Bucky Wagon, which carried the Spirit Squad to Camp Randall on Badger football game days, was deemed unsafe in 2001. The Athletic Department was concerned about the 1932 LaFrance fire engine running over band members and being easy to fall from, but it?s now undergoing repairs and will emerge more eco-friendly. Students from UW-Madison?s College of Engineering are working to make the wagon electric, said Glenn Bower, an automotive faculty advisor at UW working on the project.
