MADISON, Wis. — A herd of University of Wisconsin Law School grads took over Camp Randall Stadium right before Saturday’s homecoming game against Illinois.
The homecoming tradition calls for all law school graduates to run across the field, toss a cane over the north goalposts and catch it. Legend has it that law students who catch their cane will win their first case, WISC-TV reported.
Among Saturday’s cane throwers was Johnny Walsh, who conquered many obstacles, not the least of which is being legally blind, to get to the big day.
