Slippery Rock University's 2017 Homecoming and Reunion Weekend featured many new "wrinkles" to the lineup of events including the "Rock the Block" Tailgate Festival. The event served to help fill the downtime between the parade and kickoff, and was geared toward getting the crowd primed for game time with carnival games, food, prizes and giveaways and an outdoor stage featuring live music from "Radio Tokyo," an '80s, '90s and 2000s cover band.
