Stanfurd Band Wreaks Havoc on Farm
Well now that we no longer have the ASUC crisis to whine about, its time to move on to our favorite pasttime, bashing The Farm. Looks like the animals down the way just keep getting worse, its probably got something to do with the trauma of running onto a field full of Cal players in the middle of a certain play.
A couple weeks ago the Stanfurd band trashed their already dilapidated home that was aptly named “The Shak.” We should be proud of their English department too. And this is just a year after they tried to make us look bad by videotaping frat boys pissing out of windows. At least that didn’t cost between $30,000-$50,000 worth of damage to campus property. So, if their own face of school spirit has no respect for the school, how is anybody else expected to show their support to our favorite junior college? At least one student tried to make up an excuse:
“In a lot of ways it gives Stanford a good name,” he [Financial Officer Tom Richardson] said. “It’s different from every other college band. You’re not going to have a generic experience at a football game when you attend a Stanford game.”
Seriously, if the pride of your school is a misfit band with no self-respect and a tree that can’t hold its liquor, then there’s a valid reason nobody likes you. But if they want to start a competition over which band can pull of the most extravagant feats of vandalism, here are a few buildings on campus that our own highsteppers can practice on. But keep in mind I’ve never actually been on campus, so feel free to add to the list.
- Barrows: The building’s marked up enough with the recent construction so it would hardly be noticeable.
- Casa Z: If you can find any place here that hasn’t been vandalized then props, you deserve to leave your mark.
- Eshleman: Just be sure to use chalk.
- Evans: Any vandalism is a welcome improvement to that horrid facade.
- Hildebrand: Does anybody even know where this place is?
- Kroeber: Simple, just say its an art project.
- Pimentel: Nobody likes that building anyways.
- Wurster: See Evans.
“So, if *they’re* own face of school spirit has no respect for the school, how is anybody else expected to show their support to our favorite *jounior* college?”
we should be proud of our english department too.

ironically, this is the most humorous thing i’ve seen them do. maybe one day they’ll figure out that their self-aggrandizing brand of bullshit humor isn’t that funny. more than likely though, they’ll probably just set their own house on fire. god, fuck that gang of disgusting trust-fund mutants.
