This drone video was captured Fly By Chicago (owned by WIU Alumnus Dan Barker). A large crowd showed up to bid farewell to the building that many WIU Alumni called home over its 50-year life. Alumni returned to campus from as far away as California to watch the event live.

If you ever get a chance to see these gals, it is worth the trip. I saw them at the WWII Museum in New Orleans last year. Incredible performance. Happy Birthday America!
