Rutgers 1978
Princeton vs. Rutgers in East Rutherford, NJ
September 30th, 1978
Princeton loses 0-24
Ladies and gentlemen, the Princeton University Marching Band takes a long, hard look at entertainment in New Jersey.
“Princeton Forward”
Last year, something previously practiced covertly was legalized in certain parts of New Jersey. Residents have been high on the idea and, after hashing it over for a long time, there has been a big rush to get the first dealers in town. New joints have been lighting up the boardwalk since last spring and even the seediest roach-infested sections of town are rolling again. That’s right, we’re talking about casino gambling. The Band especially notes that now you don’t have to walk through New Brunswick to lose your shirt.
“It Ain’t Necessarily So” (Band forms a roulette wheel on the field)
The Band appreciates that disco is truly a serious form of musical expression, and if you believe that, you also believe that New Jersey is the Garden State. We salute this type of New Jersey entertainment by getting it on!
"Get It On” (Band forms two lines and moves with the music. The officers line up in front and do a free style disco to the song. At the end of the song, the whole Band yells “Yeah!!”)
And now, for the best entertainment in New Jersey, the Princeton University “big time” precision marching Band.
“March Grandioso” (Band forms the letters ‘NJ’ on the field while playing and bows at the end)
We can’t neglect the many other entertainment opportunities available to New Jersey residents such as theaters, museums, shopping malls, operas, dances, concerts, and parks.
“I Love New York” (Band shifts the ‘J’ to a ‘Y’ to form ‘NY’)
And now the only class entertainment in New Jersey leaves your playing field playing the song that has been NUMBER ONE for 232 years.
“Cannon Song” (Band re-shifts the ‘Y’ to a ‘J’ to form ‘NJ’)
