The fifty-eight year Easter Monday baseball rivalry between North
Carolina State University and Wake Forest University had a the
traditional fraternity celebration known as the PIKA Ball, held on
the NC State campus, that followed it on Monday evening. Told from
the view point of sports journalists, players, fans, and PIKA
members, the narrative reveals the excitement and developing
strategies as the contest traverses several baseball eras. At the
height of its popularity, the game drew astonishingly large crowds
of spectators, many of whom were absentee government workers,
providing the impetus for the North Carolina State Legislature to
declare Easter Monday to be a state holiday.
