Cornell 2014
Princeton at Cornell
November 1st, 2014
Princeton wins 38-27
Pregame:
Ladies and Gentlemen, we present to you the one and only, (but we're not lonely) Princeton University Band!
The band marches on to the Cannon song. While they play, announcer reads:
Boys and Girls, babies and grandparents, millenials, 30 somethings, 40-somethings, and children of all ages, The Princeton University Band is here to bring you fun, fashion, tradition, and thoughtful reflections. Hold on to your hats so you don't get blown away by the greatest thing to come to Ithaca since sliced cornbread, a ditty and a dance that goes way back, the Double Double Rotating P!
The band forms the Double Double rotating P and plays Goin’ Back.
So, we arrived here yesterday, all the way to New York from little ol' NJ. And we wanted to see a show:
Oh, Cornell-uh where the snow goes burying the plains.
Cayugamatata, what a wonderful haze
525,600 moo-cows
On my own, frozen wastland here beside me.
The phaaantom of The Marching Band is there… inside your mind
Give my regards to…
Excited as we were to go see a famous show on Broadway, we were disappointed to learn that this wasn't New York, New York, but Ithaca, New York. Yet our hearts still burned for that city that never sleeps. Saluting the place we thought we were, the band forms a hat and cane and plays Give My Regards to Broadway

Another thing we noticed when we arrived was the overwhelming Princeton spirit here on campus, coupled with a lot of straaangely dressed people. We saw Orange! We saw Black! We wear Orange! We wear black! We felt at home in the wildnerness. Except then we saw the Princesses walking down the street with an entourage of lumberjacks. And a bunch of life-sized crayons laying by the side of the road drinking red bull. And then we saw a dragon and a phoenix fighting each other to the death and burning in a huge fire. What was going on?! That's when the little witch came hobbling over to us and said, "This is Cornell Halloween. Here. Have some candy corn." So the orange and the black? "Yeah. It's got nothin to do with Princeton, sorry kids."
Disappointed yet happy to have gotten some candy corn on one of the best holidays of the year, the band forms a witches' hat in deference to the friendly witch and plays Holiday.

Ding Dong! Run away band, the trick or treaters are cornering you and stealing your candy corn!
Halftime:
Marching on from the corner, it’s the Princeton University Band!
The band plays Forward while marching on from the corner of the field
Trick or Treating around here is like a box of cornhusks. You know exactly what you're going to get. Cornhusks, canned corn, cornbread with cornstarch on the crust, creamed corn pie, Jimmy Crack Corn and Cornpuffs, all wrapped up in a cornucopia handed to you by a scornful girl with cornrows and pretty corneas dressed up as a child from Children of the Corn singing You Ain't Nothing But A Corndog to her boyfriend the cornerback and munching on kettle corn, while you stand there with corns on your feet from all the walking, and you finally go home and stretch out on the couch and open your cornography textbook, eating your Halloween loot and feeling satisfied that although you could have done it at any university, you decided to trick or treat at Cornell.
Forming the cornerstone of American farming and music industry, a husky corncob, the band plays The Final Corndown.
The band forms a corncob and plays The Final Countdown
Run away band, before they smother you in butter and heat you till you pop
