Down With Homecoming King, Queen?

After watching the announcement of the homecoming king and queen during halftime of Idaho’s victory over Louisiana Tech, I could not help but think how absolutely pointless this was. Given the complete non-response of the crowd, who elected to remain in their seats during halftime, I was not alone. Homecoming court is fine for high school or college fifty years ago, but in a modern university setting it is utterly ridiculous. I understand there is tradition behind the college homecoming king and queen yet some traditions should be stopped. The idea of electing a homecoming royalty is played out, and it is not surprising ASUI president Kelby Wilson won. On second thought, it was rather surprising, considering neither the quarterback of the football team nor a dumb, loose blonde won the titles of king and queen/ Cheyenne Hollis , UI Argonaut.

Question: Should the crowning of the king and queen be part of college homecomings?
