Considered one of the greatest fan traditions in college basketball, it's been called the best technical foul in sports.

The 32nd Annual John Brown University Golden Eagle Toilet Paper Game returned to Bill George Arena Thursday night.

More than 1,800 Golden Eagle fans threw thousands of rolls of toilet paper on the floor when Senior Abel Galliguez scored the first field goal of the season on a three-pointer 36 seconds into the first period of the season opener.

The tradition earns the team an automatic technical foul every year, but it wasn't a factor in this game as JBU would go on to win the game over Hillsdale Free Will Baptist 65-48.
