It’s homecoming week at University of Wisconsin-Stout, and Culver’s of Menomonie is joining the festivities with an exclusive Blue Devils-themed frozen custard flavor. Blue Devil Food Cake will be featured on Friday, Oct. 25, as the ButterBurger behemoth’s Flavor of the Day.
Here’s the scoop: On Oct. 1, UW-Stout launched a poll inviting the UW-Stout community and supporters to vote for one of four custom homecoming flavors. Within 24 hours, nearly 700 supporters had weighed in, but by the time the poll closed on Sunday, Oct. 13, more than 1,500 votes had been submitted.
The campus community will get an insider taste of the excusive flavor on Monday, Oct. 21, at a Stout Custard Kick-Off Event, as will participants in the annual Blue Devil Glow Run on Thursday, Oct. 24, before the flavor is officially unveiled to the public on Friday, Oct. 25. The homecoming parade, UW-Stout open house and football game, among other events, are on Saturday, Oct. 26.
The sweetest part? Whether you grab a scoop on Friday at lunch or on the way to the Fanetti Center to watch the Blue Devil hockey team take on Saint Mary’s, Culver’s is donating 10% of Friday’s Flavor of the Day sales to support the UW-Stout Student Emergency Fund.
