QUESTION OF THE DAY: Are you avoiding graduation crowds in Columbia this weekend?

It's the University of Missouri's graduation weekend, with thousands of family members and alumni flooding town to celebrate the Class of 2026.

Regardless, some people would prefer to avoid the crowds. Are you one of them?
