Princeton at Yale

Princeton loses 30-44
Pregame:
No No No No No and stop eating my showsheets, it's the Princeton University Band!
Tyler Davis, leader of our ranks, is not one to be messed with. Why? She will break you. Just like she's broken her liver, her foot, all our inboxes, her computer, her rules of pants-wearing, and Morris' heart. Things break her too, like the dodgeball that broke her glasses, the wine glass that broke her foot, and the bass drum that broke her spine. The bottom line is, if you are wary of your physical integrity, and especially if you are a drum, stay away. This girl has broken a rim, a drumhead, and about two hundred drumsticks. Does this Princeton student propagate the image of effortless perfection? Nah, try perfection-less effort. In Tyler's honor, the Band forms breaking drumsticks on the field and plays her favorite song, Call Me. Maybe.

Once upon a time there was a young princess named Tyler who grew up in a Palace on 1 Sunflower Drive with a dolphin shaped pool. On a bright spring morning she received an acceptance letter from the Princetown and she set off to discover the world with Ken Lee the magical wizard by her side to guide her on her quest, to not get arrested. That quest ends now... [the band smiles and waves innocently] Just kidding! While there were some tough times, there were also happy times, like finding out her prince charming was a dashing young Indian man named... Jeeves. All in all Ms. Davis made it through her trials with flying colors, and the Band now celebrates by forming Single Double Rotating Ds on the field and playing Goin' Back to Nassau Hall.

Run away, Band, Wait. They won't love you like she loves the Princeton University Band
Halftime:
Excuse me, Miss Drum Major, your music is waking people up. It's the Princeton University Band!
The band marches on to Forward March
So this guy wakes up in his bachelors' bungalow in Yale, yeah, and sees another guy in his room, fiddle-diddling with his computer. He leaps out of the bottom bunk, bounds to the door in hot pursuit, books it down the banister, scrambles through the dense underbrush, and finally bursts out behind a bastion of hospitality, the New Haven Marriott, where a bunch of bluebloods bag the burglar. Okay, so things get stolen in New Haven every day. But what the papers don't mention are things like the faculty stealing CS 50 from Harvard. I guess that kind of thing is even more common. It's also not as interesting as the computer bandit getting bailed out of jail, going to New Orleans, and starting over in the red light district. It's also not as fun to form on the field. With that, the band forms a running bandit and plays Basin Street Blues.

Something that we have always wondered is how Handsome Dans are chosen. Of course, we know that when a Handsome Dan retires he comes over to the country club at Princeton, takes long walks on Alexander Beach, and chases squirrels to his heart's content. But back in New Haven, an application process is underway. Toys representing the Ivy League are placed before candidates to test their reactions. The current Dan was chosen because he tore up a Harvard blanket and passed neither disdain nor approval on the Princeton Tiger. So his attitude is right, but what about his looks? Judging from the past twelve generations, a Handsome Dan must look no better than Buddy Holly, but attract the admiration of fans that look as good as Mary Tyler Moore. The Band forms a bone for Handsome Dan and plays Buddy Holly to get him going.

Run away, Band, your laundry is done and the Yale poopetrator is on the move!
