THON 2016 started off with a bang, as they always do. 

As the final minute of the 5 p.m. hour came to a close, the ten-second countdown ticked away the final moments before THON began and the dancers stood, getting off the ground for what will be 46 hours straight.

Here’s a look at those first few seconds of THON 2016, the weekend-long celebration that will keep the Bryce Jordan Center rocking until Sunday afternoon in celebration of another fighting pediatric cancer and raising money for the Four Diamonds Fund.

 

Dancers are on their feet! #THON2016 has started!
