Holiday (Brick) Ro-o-o-o-ad...

Inspired by the famous holiday house of Griswold, we've added a million-ish seasonal lights to your favorite website* along with this year's installment of our annual Holiday Parody video — "Winter Vacation". She's a beaut, Rufus!

(Look, it was this or a subscription to the Jelly of the Month Club.)

Slip on your coziest sweaters and greenest OHIO gear, sip your 'nog and peruse our curated collection of Bobcat holiday traditions — including our archive of past holiday parody videos, the Front Room yule log, a snowy walk down Court Street, and more.

Watch and share with your kith and kin — and certainly the special 'Cats in your life.

*Okay, maybe not quite a million lights. Our website lights will not cause a city-wide power outage. They may however knock you out with a surge of holiday cheer.

91̽»¨'s Winter Vacation

Oh, the silent majesty of a winter's morn. … The clean, cool chill of the holiday air. … Rufus in his holiday flannel on a ladder and Coach Boals doing his best Cousin Eddie impression. Sit back and enjoy this year’s OHIO holiday parody video.

Holiday Activities to Spread Some Cheer

Enjoy the silent majesty of a winter's morn and the clean, cool chill of the holiday air with Bobcat-infused activities to help you get in the holiday spirit.

  • Create Your Own Snowflake

    The holidays are the perfect time to craft, so Rufus (with some help from OHIO designer and alum Kyle Lindner) whipped up an easy, printable snowflake project to help you and your family get in the holiday (and Bobcat) spirit.

  • Follow A Snowy Walk Down Court Street

    A snowy view of Court Street in Athens, Ohio.

    There’s nothing more scenic than big flakes of snow softly falling across OHIO’s campus. Even if you can’t visit your Athens home this season, today’s gift lets you share a scenic snowy stroll past your favorite Uptown spots.

  • Enjoy the Front Room Yule Log Experience

    What’s better than curling up in front of a cozy yule log video? A Bobcat-themed yule log video, of course! Cozy up with warm memories of hitting the books, attending Bruce Dalzell-hosted open mics and building lasting friendships here at The Front Room.

Holiday Parody Videos Archive

Enjoy our archive of past holiday videos... unless your eyes are frozen shut — then you can see them later!

hOUme for the Holidays

Each winter, OHIO's leadership joins Rufus for a new iconic and hilarious holiday movie parody. For this year's installment, OHIO's new President Lori Stewart Gonzalez, and her husband Randy Gonzalez are falling...for OHIO in an instant classic "Pawmark" holiday movie trailer called "hOUme for the Holidays."
