Princeton loses 7-29
Ladies and gentlemen, the Princeton University Band takes a long, hard look at famous Greek myths.
“Princeton Forward”
The Band first salutes Oedipus, who spend most of his resources trying to expose the fallacy in the prediction of the sphinx. However, he pulled a incredible faux pas and was hard pressed to rectify the situation. Forming an eternal triangle on the field, the Band salutes this complex character who followed in his father’s footsteps and incensed his family with the philosophy of “I Want a Girl”
(Band forms triangle)
We now consider Atlas, the original athletic supporter, who spent his days holding up an immense ball. The Band testifies to the day that Atlas can finally relinquish his superior position and seek another niche in life. Forming
a) a spicy meatball
b) a weighty problem
We see Atlas shrug his shoulders as he drops his load. “Sixteen Tons” (Band forms a circle) Turning its attention to the Sack of Troy, the Band recalls how the Greek soldiers devisied a way to by-pass the Trojans protecting Helen. They came in a wooden horse late one night and slipped through Troy’s defences. Forming
a) the Sack of Troy
b) a wooden horse, or
c) the Trojan’s defences,
we hear the fickly and unholy Helen declare “I Love Paris” (Band forms a square with no bottom) Concluding its pose as a pernicious purveyor of pedagoguery, the Princeton Band would like to propose its annual salute to that most famous modern Greek myth, Spiro T. Agnewopolis, our verbally vaxating Vice President. Forming
a) Roget’s Thesaurus,
b) a repetitious redundant, or
c) a licentious lexicon of literary liberalism,
the Band facetiously faces one of erudite Spiro’s effervescent elucidations of forensic flatulence. “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” (Band forms square with vertical line in it)
