It’s time for University of Idaho stu-dents to “pop some tags” at the thrift shop because a premier Seattle rap duo is heading to Moscow for Finals Fest.

Macklemore and Ryan Lewis most re-cently broke ground with an independent release of their full-length album “The Heist.” Without a traditional record label, the album took iTunes’ No. 1 spot and debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard charts. The duo’s “Thrift Shop” single is current-ly the second most popular song, accord-

ing to Billboard.Taylor Williams, ASUI Vandal En-

tertainment board chair, said every UI student is guaranteed a ticket, which will be available April 1-5 in the $68,�RIÀFH��

To obtain a ticket, students must bring their Vandal cards, and this year, one non-perishable food item. All of the food collected will go to the UI Food Pantry, which will seek to provide low-income students with food security.

There will also be about 40 back-stage passes available, which Willams said is rare

for Finals Fest. Students can “like” Vandal Entertainment’s Facebook page to get details during the re-mainder of the semester on how to win passes. Williams said there might be Facebook contests, and students may be able to enter into UDIÁHV�E\�DWWHQGLQJ�FHUWDLQ�HYHQWV���

In briefScampering for heart health

Gritman Medical Center will host the seventh Annual Red Skirt Scamper 5K Run/Walk at 9 a.m. Sat-urday, beginning inside the Ross En-trance at the Palouse Mall.

Shannon Smith, exercise spe-cialist at the Martin Wellness Center, said the event has been well-attended in the past. Even though an unexpected blizzard blew through last year’s scamper, it still drew nearly 70 people.

“The year before, nearly 200 people came out,” Smith said. “Adults, kids and the (UI) Marines ROTC come out in red dresses.”

The run is an out-and-back route heading north on Sheep Road. Prizes for best red dress, best red accesso-ries and best dressed children will be awarded after the run at 10:15 a.m.

Entry to the 5K is by donation. Do-QDWLRQV� EHQHÀW� WKH� *ULWPDQ�0HGLFDO�Center’s Cardiac Rehab program and Martin Wellness Center programs.
