BYU Fan Fest in Huntington Beach brought Cougar Nation out in droves for fun activities last Saturday before head football coach Kalani Sitake and several players held a special devotional Sunday afternoon.

Cougar fans of all ages had the opportunity to get autographed posters and interact and take photos with student-athletes, coaches and Cosmo. Inflatable slides, bounce houses, lawn games, face painting and a live DJ were also part of the experience, as well as the chance to indulge in some favorite BYU concession items like the famous CougarTail, purchase Cougar merchandise from the BYU Store or learn more about the Cougar Club and a variety of other university programs.

BYU basketball players Dawson Baker, Dean Rueckert, along with football players Bear and Tiger Bachmeier, Siale Esera, Cade Uluave, Bodie Schoonover and Evan Johnson all appeared on the set of BYU Sports Nation for a special broadcast on BYUtv live from the event. Watch the full show. 

Sunday's devotional in Anaheim featured inspiring messages about Jesus Christ delivered by members of BYU's football program. Speakers included players Ulavai Fetuli, Siale Esera, Viliami Po'uha, Walker Lyons, assistant athletic director for travel Peter Esera and Coach Sitake.
