Dartmouth vs. Columbia, 11/06/93 (Away)

 

PREGAME

And Now the only band in the Ivy League here today that actually has fans to play for, the Dartmouth College Marching Band!

BAND DOWNFIELD TO DT-1

Ah, New York! Columbia! The Ivy League! But if Columbia University is like rich, fresh ground, fresh brewed Columbian coffee, then the Columbia band is like Folger's crystals. Just to please both of the Columbia fans in the stands today, we will now play Columbia's song.

REVERSE CONCERT FORMATION COLUMBIA SONG

Please rise as student conductor Ross Nova leads the band in the playing of the Dartmouth College Alma Mater.

HALFTIME

And now the only band in the Ivy League that thinks it just saw Juan Valdez, the Dartmouth College Marching Band!

BAND DOWNFIELD TO DT-1

When we went to the Columbia campus for the first time yesterday, we noticed that it looks completely different on the inside and outside. It's almost like Alice going through the looking glass. One minute you're in the real world, then you go through the gate and you're in Wonderland, and lots of little funny creatures are running around. Then you realize it's just Columbia. Watch now as the band forms [second formation] and plays [second song].

SECOND FORMATION SECOND SONG

The Columbia football team is always referred to jokingly as the Smurfs because of their smurfy blue uniforms, tight white pants, and stumpy blue tails. We at the DCMB have noticed however that not only the football team looks like smurfs, but almost all Columbia students remind us of small blue creatures. For example, the smurfs live in little funky mushrooms. Columbia students eat little funky mushrooms. Smurfs can only procreate during a blue moon and Columbia students do it about as often. Both have only a limited vocabulary. Watch now as the band forms [third formation] and plays [third song].

THIRD FORMATION THIRD SONG

The New York City Mayoral elections took place earlier this week. We don't really care too much about NYC politics, but here are the top ten people who we think should have been elected Mayor of New York City.

10) The Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.

9) George Bush, after all, he's not doing anything anymore

8) Dartmouth's President Freedman

7) Mr. Ed, because he reminds us of Ed Koch.

6) Joey Buttafuoco

5) Famous Columbia alum Papa Smurf

4) We regret to inform you that number four has moved to New Jersey.

3) Barney

2) Ross Perot - oh wait, he dropped out of the race.

And the number one person we think should have been elected Mayor of New York, 1) The Drum Major of the Columbia band - he's obviously doing such a great job with that plunger of his.

Watch now as the DCMB forms [fourth formation] and plays [fourth song]

FOURTH FORMATION FOURTH SONG
