8/18/2009 | Football
OXFORD, Miss. - In an abundance of caution regarding the potential exposure of various flu strains, Ole Miss officials announced Tuesday that Saturday's planned "Meet the Rebels Day" has been cancelled for this year.
"After consultation with our team physicians and Coach Houston Nutt, we felt it was in the best interest of our football team to cancel this year's 'Meet the Rebels Day'," said Ole Miss Athletics Director Pete Boone.
"While we may be overly cautious regarding the flu, our season opener is less than three weeks away and we can't take any chances," Nutt said. "We certainly regret not being able to interact with our fans at this time."
The UMAA Foundation will be refunding any moneys paid for the luncheon. Anyone that paid by check or cash will receive a check from the Foundation in the mail, while credit card payments will be credited back to the card that was used.
