Delaware Blue Hens Wrap Up Their 302 Tour Today

How many teams do you know would take the time to tour the state they rep? We're proud to see the Delaware Blue Hens wrap up their 302 tour today.

Over the course of the last season, the UD men's and women's basketball teams made the NCAA tournaments. The excitement was palpable.

The tour bus full of student athletes and coaches made its way up and down the first state.

The athletes are meeting fans and people from all over the 302. They are hoping to instill pride in communities and meet folks from other areas who may otherwise not attend games. Maybe after this, they will be more inclined to travel to the campus and go to a game.

With today being the last day, you only have a few opportunities to link up with them and show your support.

You can see the rest of the schedule below and grab tickets to the Blue Rocks Game tonight, where the Delaware Blue Hens will be in attendance.

Homes Of University of Delaware Students Featured On TikTok channel College Cribz.  This account appears to be a fairly new Tik Tok channel that takes followers on tours of exactly what the page is called, College Cribz.  The account now has nearly 40,000 followers with just over 20 posts and half a million likes.   The bio on the page reads "Trashy Cribs, Classy Kids"

"Cribz" at the University of Delaware are featured in several episodes.   Other schools on the channel are Rowan College in Glassboro, NJ and Iona University in New Rochelle, NY, among a couple of others.  To say these "cribz" are less than desirable would be a major understatement.  Take a look at some of the "cribz" they've toured from U of D.

With the warm weather right around the corner, we're all eager to get outside again and enjoy outdoor events. Delaware Reddit chimed in with the Delaware events they're looking forward to. WJBR will be present and has been present at these events for years! Along with outdoor dining, live music, breweries and wineries opening up, there's also plenty of outdoor events to look forward to this Spring and Summer. Mark your calendars for these special events and plan to attend them!

Wilmington is constantly growing and hosting new events, so I wouldn't be surprised to see more start popping up. These events are staples of Delaware and are really just a glimpse of the special things that go on in the small state.

Hosted on Sunday May 7th, 2023 at Winterthur. Each year crowds gather to tailgate the Point to Point steeplechase, along with pageantry and fun for the whole family. This event is extremely popular within the Northern Delaware area especially. This event has been going on for 45 years.

You Know You're From Delaware If You Say These 16 Things

Only In Your State.Com came up with a list of "You Know You're From Delaware If You Say These 14 Things".

We agreed with this list and added a couple of our own.

They couldn't be any more true.

Delaware can be it's own world.

We share a lot of things with other states. Our water resources run through other surrounding states. The beaches are enjoyed by out of towners. Our tax free shopping is an attraction for tourists.

However, we also have a lot of things other states can't claim. The President of the United States lives here. We are the first state. And we have a lot of slang that other folks don't recognize.

We have so much to be proud of here in our state.

Delaware is known for its history, beaches, and its tax-friendly laws. There are various fun festivals throughout the year and sports activities you can enjoy.

The Delaware State Fair is one of the biggest and best around.

Despite being a tiny state, Delaware is diverse. Top attractions include the First State National Historical Park, Brandywine Zoo, Hagley Museum and Gardens, and Fenwick Island.

If you've been to any of these places then you understand the allure.

There are some things you may have heard being said while in Delaware. You may not quite understand what they meant if you are a townie. But if you're from here, you'll understand immediately.

So, how Delaware are you?

Do you say these 14 things?

Take a look below at the list: You Know You're From Delaware If You Say These 16 Things

Cracking up or laughing. As in, "I was baggin' up listening to Deanna and Justin In The Morning"

A creek or stream. Little Creek (Crick) is the name of a small town outside of Dover.

Another word for water.

We don't go down the shore. We go to the beach.

The area of Delaware below the C & D Canal, primarily Kent and Sussex Counties.

Our favorite breakfast meat. We have a whole festival dedicated to it.

Also known as Milford (or Seaford). A lot of Delawareans are known to exchange 'd' at the end of a word to a 't'.

You know, where the steakshop is.

Delawareans have a tendancy to let the back of their mouth pronounce the 't' in words. Instead of Clayton, its "Clay-in".

Where you get your wooder from

That thing you had for breakfast

Ya know, rain so heavy it could choke a toad.

Giving someone directions is different in Delaware

The way you acted last Friday in Trolley Square

Sub- Your lunch from Wawa. We all know it's a hoagie, but some Delaware folks still say sub.

Where you're from.

The rest of the world doesn't know, but we do. There's a time when it's Christina and a time when it's Christiana.
