Dartmouth 2017
Princeton at Dartmouth
November 18th, 2017
Princeton loses 54-44
Pregame:
It could be worse, it’s the Princeton University Band!
[Band scrambles onto field]
Paloma Aguas has been our fearless leader for this past year! Being responsible for so many people is pretty tough and we appreciate all that she’s done! But what’s the secret behind the will to go on? Simply the excitement of new Band members and being with her quads babies is enough to keep her going. Paloma gets a lot of joy from teaching Alex, James, and Yeesl how to play quads and playing with them at games. I want to be a quads baby too! Listen to me play! [plays quads in announcer’s booth or plays recording of myself playing quads] Aren’t I great? Forming Paloma’s favorite instrument, the Band plays Rescue Me.

As president of the Band, Paloma has to deal with all the repercussions for all the things the Band does, such as shouting obscenities in the stands, forgoing pants during third quarter, and Paloma’s personal favorite, forming a certain undesired body part when opportunity strikes. Forming a [email protected] for all comments and complaints, the Band plays Going Back to Nassau Hall.

Run away Band, your tenure’s almost over!
Halftime:
Man, you could write anything for these come-on lines. It’s the Princeton University Band!
[Band marches on to Princeton Forward March]
Here we find ourselves, in the cold, cold land of Hanover, New Hampshire. We’re a few hundred miles north of where we’re used to being so it’s been a tough adjustment to make. It’s a frozen wasteland up here but on the Brightside, the Princeton Band is here to bring some good ol’ fashioned New Jersey sunshine and warmth to your lives!
[Band forms the sun and plays Mr. Brightside]
Dartmouth is known for two things: Keggy the Keg and sheep. When we arrived, it just so happened that Keggy the Keg was keeping a poor sheep hostage with the intention of…rolling in the hay with it. The honorable Princeton Tiger wanted to protect this poor sheep from Keggy’s baaaaad [baas like sheep] intentions and engaged in an epic battle with the Big Green foe. It was well fought but in the end, the Tiger defeated Keggy with its deadly laser tiger eyes and saved the sheep! Forming our prize, the Thanksgiving Turkey basted with the beer from our enemy, the Band becomes master-basters and plays Eye of the Tiger.

And now, on behalf Princeton University Band’s President Paloma Aguas, our only president to never “do tacky”, Drum Major Zhi-shui Hsu, dancer and show-writer extraordinaire whose whistle took us from the Palestra to Parades, and occasionally to the 20-yard line; Head Manager Lucinda Pastora, spontaneous exclaimer, but thankfully non-spontaneous trip planner; and Conductor Kyle Groves, who AGRSSIVELY taught the band the ways of the Force, this is your British Import and Announcer Yash Huilgol, signing off. The Band is strong in will to perform, to play, to field, and not to yield…so thank you for your time. Run away Band on Three…!”
