Tradition
USF has held a campus Homecoming since 1964. Early Homecomings were scheduled around the Golden Brahman's (later the Bulls) basketball games. 1997 marked the only year where two Homecomings were celebrated: in spring for the last traditional basketball Homecoming and October 18, 1997, - USF's first football Homecoming. Since 1997, USF Homecoming's have been named "SuperBull", followed by the numeric succession since '97.
Throughout the years, the traditional bonfire has been held - where the mascot of the opposing team is crowned as the centerpiece of a ready-to-burn wood palate tower. A campus carnival began in 1991 and has been held ever since. The traditional Running with the Bulls Night Parade has been held on various locations and most recently featured over 100 entries of floats and cars representing both the school and the TampaBay community.
