The line stretched from the entrance to the Student Union Theater all the way back, almost to the stairs leading into the Food Court.
Despite a $3 entry fee, students sold out the theater Friday night to see UConn's eight a cappella music groups perform. Half of each entry fee was donated to the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life, for a total of $750.
"It's cool to give back to the UConn community," said Bryan Banville, a 4th-semester biomedical engineering major and member of Extreme Measures.
And the a cappella groups gave back to the UConn community with their talents and with the money raised. The other half of the money raised will go to the eight groups that performed.
