PREGAME
And now, the only band in the Ivy League that would rather sit and watch
paint dry than go to Convocation, the Dartmouth College Marching Band!
Well, here were are, on a beautiful Saturday morning. Today, the Big Green
will take on that team from the little town next to Bethlehem - no, not Israel
- Lehigh. Lehigh - known for its steel factories, steel plants, and discount
steel warehouses. Watch now as the DCMB forms a symbolic slab of iron and
plays the Lehigh alma mater, Ten Thousand Steel Workers of Lehigh.
SLAB FORMATION LEHIGH SONG
Thank you all for coming out to this game, and here are a few things to
think about. First, this is the 100th year of the Dartmouth Marching Band.
Second, it is Liz Hellman’s birthday on Monday. Last, and not least, a recent
president was quoted as saying this year will be "The best year ever."
Will you please rise and join the marching band in the singing of our alma
mater.

And now, the only band in the Ivy League in this stadium today, the
Dartmouth College Marching Band!
Every year, the Marching Band feels that not enough credit is being given
to some of the outstanding organizations on the campus. Be that as it may, we,
the DCMB feel is only natural to want to lavish praise upon those
organizations which serve the Dartmouth Community. Let's look at Thayer Hall.
Mmmm Mmm. Such great food. Unlimited seconds. Sometimes you can even tell a
dish without reading the label above it. Did you ever wonder why meal plans
were mandatory for freshmen? Did you ever wonder why no half-sane
upperclassmen even thinks of buying a meal plan? Anyway, to help you in the
never-ending quest for knowledge, the DCMB presents a short lesson in
identifying foods at Thayer Dining Hall. Watch now as the DCMB forms a piece
of Thayer Chicken.

Gosh, all this food looks so good. But wait? Who's that coming on the field
to check for sanitary food preparation? Oh no, It's the Department of Health,
coming to revoke Thayer's new Pizza License. Watch now as the Band forms the
Department of Health's solution to Avoiding the Thayer layer - Don't go.

After many people eat the creative dishes at Thayer, they often find
themselves downright sick - Oops! Off to Dick's House, where you will be
professionally examined and treated by at least a Pre Med student. You say you
have an upset stomach? Try Motrin, they might say. You think you're pregnant?
Motrin's your answer. Broken foot. Try some Motrin. Black plague? Motrin will
kill it. STD's getting you down? Have a Motrin. You need a Safe Sex Kit? Here,
have a Motrin instead. It really seems as if you take your life into your own
hands at Dick's house. In fact, their remedies look like they were found on a
fortune wheel. What? A wheel? Watch now as the DCMB forms a giant Motrin
tablet and plays that all-time favorite television game show theme, Wheel of
Fortune
