2. Pink out

There are so many fun ways to go all out for pink out. You will find students dressed head to toe in their favorite pink gear. The best thing about this theme is you can find all of these things at home! No shopping required.

Jersey night is a great opportunity to dress as your favorite professional player or to match with your friends. If you don’t have a jersey at home, borrow one from a PV athlete to show your support!
