Pregame:

Our elections are harder than yours: It’s the Princeton University Band!

[Band marches on to Princeton Cannon Song]

Have you struggled to keep your endowment and rankings up with age? Do you have trouble getting an election? Some places, particularly those that like the color red like North Korea, really struggle to get their electorate up and choose to just lock them up instead. However, the USA’s endurance is unparalleled, holding elections every other year since 1790. Recently, they’ve been hotter and heavier than ever. This year, we are about to reach the climax of the midterms! Oh! We’re almost there… Where are you, Harvard? It’s the final countdown!

Band forms Harvard’s drooping electorate and plays Final Countdown.

Oh the sweet, sweet ecstasy of participatory democracy. It leaves our heads spinning, swirling, imagining, whirling, pinwheeling, beyblading, and cartwheeling, just like our double-double rotating P!

[Band forms double-double rotating P and plays Going Back to Nassau Hall]

Run away band, and tell all these hooligans to register to vote!

Halftime: 

It’s the refreshing taste of all 23 flavors of the Princeton University Band!
 
[Band marches on to Princeton Forward March]

Heyyy Harvard, couldn’t help but notice that dashing shade of red you’re wearing. Also couldn’t help but notice that it looks just like the logo of our favorite soda: Dr. Pepper! Here are some fun facts about Dr. Pepper: It was first introduced in 1885, making it older than Coca-Cola! The recipe is a trade secret and is kept as two halves in separate safety deposit boxes in Dallas. Dr. Pepper used to be called a “Waco” because it was invented in Waco, TX. Coincidentally, “Daddy’s Money” used to be called a “Cambridge!” 

Band celebrates this fact by forming a dollar bill and playing “Free Ride.”

Seeing as the Princeton band is visiting you all on our fall break, we wanted to express condolences to the less well-endowed. We recommend a nice, crisp Dr Pepper to comfort you during this time of hardship. Dr Pepper’s 41 mg of caffeine keep us awake during our long nights studying—since our classes are actually hard. While you all can coast through October without a vacation, we tigers are turning into a… basket case. 

Band forms can of dr pepper/rectangle/pile of homework and plays “Basket Case.”

Run away band! Harvard’s grade inflation might be contagious!
