Prior to each game on First Security Field at Estes Stadium, the Bears make their traditional walk down Bruce Street
2 hours & 45 minutes prior to kickoff. The team, accompanied by the UCA Bear Marching Band, enters Bruce Street just east of the Prince Center from Marian Ross Dr., and walks westward through the Bruce Street tailgating area to interact with the assembled members of Bear Nation until arriving at Estes Stadium. Fans, whether tailgating along Bruce Street or not, are encouraged to line the street to greet and cheer on the Bears as they make their final approach into the stadium.
