As with many of the previous years, Homecoming 1947 was slated to be the biggest alumni crowd yet, with almost 25,000 people expected to show up for the big Wake Forest-Duke game. This was projected to be an exciting game, as the Demon Deacons were hoping to break a 25 year jinx, since they had only had one win against Duke in the past 25 years. Pep rallies, fraternity decorations, and dances round out the events of Homecoming 1947. The Demon Deacons were hopeful for a victory as their 1947 team was described as "the best team yet."
