Hey there fiends. If you go to PSU then you know all about THON and all the good that comes from it. If you do not know about it then let me fill you in. THON is a dance marathon that was started in 1973 to combat childhood cancer. Organizations raise money throughout the year for the event and then dancers stand on their feet for 46 hours in an awe-inspiring show of enthusiasm and support for the cause. Every year there is a new PSU line dance that the dancers do at various times during the weekend. I must admit that the first time I experienced it as a freshmen, I couldn’t wrap my mind around it. THON is not like a fraternity or sorority but more like a weekend-long cult. It’s amazing to see a stadium full of college students with a Mason Family-like passion for good. I would love to expound upon it with greater details but maybe you just need to see it.
