Bucknell 1984
Princeton vs. Bucknell
September 29th, 1984
Outcome Unknown
Ladies and gentlemen, the Princeton University Band takes a long, hard look at…New happenings at Princeton.
“Princeton Forward”
Construction is a big new thing at Princeton. Juniors are Curling up in the gutters of 1985 courtyard with no place to live while waiting months for six more feet of Frick Labs. The higher-ups at Nassau Hall even love the Band so much they spent 29 million dollars to improve our practice field by installing a new molecular biology building in the center of it so that six majors could have a place to culture new bacteria. The Band finally agrees with the Princeton alumni — the old days were better.
“Wipe Out” (Band form house which collapses into a line)
The Band would like to remind you to support Campus Fund Drive, a valiant crew who is busy raising a fortune this year to come to the aid of a group starving like none before them, to help in their fight for self-sufficiency and no more cold food, to boldly rescue the Forbes 500 from the desolate dungeon that remains…Princeton Inn College.
“Star Trek” (Band forms ‘CFD’ which changes to ‘PIC’)
Aren’t you hungry? Bet ya are. Have you been holding the pickles since last May, waiting for Burger King, that palace of greased pleasure, to hit the town of Princeton? Well wait no longer, the Home of the Whopper is here to satisfy your every craving. As the first junk food mecca to hit the streets of Princeton, Burger King will add pleasure and variety to your eating experience, so you can eat it in, you can take it out, you can add more mayo, you can cut the mustard, we’ll even hold the buns. Forming a Whopper on the field, the Band reminds you that at Burger King you can have it your way.
“My Way” (Band forms a hamburger)
This year another Princeton tradition has been dealt a great blow. To protect freshmen from injury while mounting Nassau Hall the administration, in a typical show of ingenuity, surreptitiously swiped the clapper. Fearing the frustrated freshmen would filch Princeton’s fabled and fabulous silver mace, the administration hid the clapper deep within the university woods. Nevertheless, a victorious group of freshmen snatched their long lost clapper from the grass. Tireless, they then beat the cannon 88 times. Forming a clapper on the field the Band invites the freshmen to hunt us.
“Liberty Bell March” (Band forms clapper, possibly the most phallic formation we’ve done in years)
