WHAT IS "AGGIES NIGHT"
The "Aggies Night" men's hockey game is a celebration of the Ontario Agricultural College, one of the founding colleges of the University of Guelph. Each year, the Gryphons men's hockey team will dedicate one of their regular season home games to celebrating Canada's largest and most renowned agricultural college, its students and its alumni. The Gryphons wear special "Aggies" jerseys for each "Aggies Night" game, in place of the team's usual home Gryphon jerseys.
