Cornell 1984
Princeton at Cornell
September 22nd, 1984
Outcome Unknown
(Announcer blows, taps on mike) Testing 1-2-3, testing…I have outlawed the Big Red menace. Bombing of Cornell will begin in five minutes. What? We’re on the air?….Ahem…excuse me… Ladies and Gentlemen, the Princeton University Band takes a long, hard look at…the Empire State.
“Princeton Forward"
(Announcer uses commercial voice) This is Henry Schlock, president of H & R Schlock, with one of my 147 reasons why we should prepare your taxes. Reason number 70…We thoroughly prepare the taxes of the typical two-income family. Take two of our best customers, Geraldine Ferraro and her husband, John Zaccarro. Please. We managed to show Gerry how to check boxes without looking at what’s next to them. We can even show you how to get $50,000 to start your own political career. We know of so many loopholes you’ll never have to kiss your assets goodbye. Call us at our conveniently located offices in Bermuda, Zurich, and Libya. (Back to normal voice) This is the Princeton University Band forming a misplaced decimal point on the field and reminding you that with H & R Schlock, you can’t go on the Fritz.
“There’s Nothing Like a Dame” (Band forms decimal point)
And speaking of being on the Fritz, how ’bout those Mets? With Gooden’ plenty of pitching, including a Darling reject from New Haven, the magic was back until Strawberry and company were jammed by the boys of the Windy City. They have recently left the experts hanging by coming up inches short of the division title. Forming the miracle year of Met Magic on the field, the Band says “with names like Mookie, they can’t be that good.”
“Mission Impossible.” (Band forms ’69)
Another New Yorker in a difficult position these days is Vanessa Williams. Forming Bob Guccione’s telephoto lens, the Princeton Band takes an up close and personal look at this Empire State beauty. Although she said she didn’t know what she was doing, she’s feeling low these days due to the negative reaction to her over exposure. Zooming in on the action, the Band voices Vanessa’s lament: “I’m just a Girl Who Can’t Say No.”
“I’m Just a Girl Who Can’t Say No” (Band forms a lens which zooms longer)
