It's Cardinal Cash Cab!! We cruised around campus playing a few rounds of trivia with students to help #RaiseSomeL for the campus cause of their choice. PLUS, we've got special celebrity guest Dan McDonnell, Head Coach of Louisville Baseball Baseball. Our Student Organization for Alumni Relations (SOAR) will be out on campus this evening! Find the Louisville Alumni golf cart and you just might get a chance to answer trivia and earn funds for any area on campus. But hurry, this event only lasts until 6pm today!
