Jayhawk House displays pride

Tailgating season is in full effect, and what better way to show your pride and love for the Jayhawks than to live in a house painted red, blue and yellow?
Located on Ninth and Mississippi Streets, just steps from Memorial Stadium, the "Jayhawk House" cannot go unnoticed.
Katelyn Zink, a junior from Bushton and Chinyere Amadi, a junior from Parsons moved into the house in August after seeing an ad for the house on Craigslist. It was an easier process than they thought considering it's widespread popularity.
They were excited to be a part of a tradition and live in a house that is famous for promoting Jayhawk spirit.

Zink and Amadi's landlord painted the house about six years ago.
"Our parents were a little skeptical about us moving in because it is an older house, but they love it because it is so 'college,' Zink said.
"He told us he hopes that no one from K-State will move anywhere close," Amadi said.
Each roommate pays $275 per

Each roommate pays $275 per month for rent. They were happy with the price and believe that the one-floor house with two bedrooms and one bath is the perfect size for them. They were fortunate to be able to furnish the house from donations made by friends and family.
The "Jayhawk House" draws crowds of fans taking photos and sharing University pride. Zink and Amadi are thankful they live in a

house where Kansas fans can celebrate and make memories.
They plan on hosting tailgates for every home football game this season, as well as making some money by selling parking spots on gamedays.
The girls are excited to start their own traditions at their new home painted in true lavahawk fashion.
"When we're older, we will always remember that we lived in the 'Jayhawk House' our junior year." Amadi said.
