Get Ready For the Canes Instagram Challenge

CORAL GABLES, Fla. – The University of Miami Athletics department is challenging its fans to show their Hurricane Pride in the inaugural Canes Instagram Challenge.

Starting today and every Monday until Sept. 7, Miami Athletics will encourage its fans to show off their Canes pride on Instagram.

Using the hashtag #Canes followed by the camera emoji fans are encouraged to submit their photos based on a week-by-week challenge from the athletic department.

Each week, fans, who submit their photos on Instagram using #Canes along with the camera emoji will be considered each week for the top 10 photos of that specific challenge.

This week’s challenge: where in the world have ‘U’ been? Post a picture of you and/or friends or family members throwing up the U around the globe.

The top 10 photos from each week’s challenge will be printed and displayed on the lower concourse level at Sun Life Stadium and in the official gameday program during Miami’s Homecoming game against Clemson on Oct. 24.

The Hurricanes’ digital marketing team will judge the best photos submitted through Instagram on a week to week basis.

To be considered for the top 10 photos of the week, fans must use the correct hashtag and the camera emoji. Any post that includes profanity or is not in overall good taste will be immediately disqualified from the challenge.

Each week a fan photo will be featured on the Miami Hurricanes main Instagram account, @miamihurricanes. In addition, each photo selected will be added on a map featured on HurricaneSports.com.
