well, I'm not going to get into details, but it had to do with the sprinklers on the football field.

Cathy said...

How about all the guys in their tight shorty shorts!!!!!!!!! I've got pictures.lol

CookieTea said...

how about all of those initiations. Remember when Mr. Walters ran around the field like Benny Hill?

Cathy said...

The cold swims in Georgia! Anyone remember what the temperature was that night?

CookieTea said...

I remember Itchie Owie. Wasn't her name Aileen? What was that song you guys used to sing about her?

Cathy said...

Mandy, Alex says that he remembers the attic, but that was a long time ago.:)

CookieTea said...

Who was that?! Do you remember when we changed our show so that we could bootie dance against Carol City?

CookieTea said...

that's right. Eric Henderson, right? I also remember something happening during the cadence that night, but not sure what.

CookieTea said...

does anyone remember the time we had a substitute and the brass started singing a take on "My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean," but it was totally lewd, and Celso fell off of his chair?

CookieTea said...

actually it was Spanish for eggs. :)

Kara said...

Oooh, I just had a major memory flashback. It involved my partner in crime (Mark Hilson) and me rapping to Dr. Suess', "Green Eggs and Ham" and "One Fish Two Fish, Red Fish Blue Fish". I miss those carefree silly times (tho I muist admit I am still purty silly at times!)

How about when we sang "I Feel for You" by Chaka Khan in Spanish?

Niki said...

I remember the show we did in Eric's name. Alfonso and I got the lecture from Mr. K immidiately after.....oops OH WELL it was fun.

CookieTea said...

Some band-ees from the class of '79 contacted me. They found our blog somehow. They did the same thing against Carol City High. It's funny how we thought we were the only ones to ever pull that off!

CookieTea said...

debbie,
man, you REALLY took me back. Thanks.

Niki said...

{{sniff, sniff}} boy Deb, that was deep, i'm glad the meds have kicked in...

Niki said...

Those are great memories!!! I can still recite the serial number on my clarinet....SIR! YES! SIR!

don't forget the bleach white gloves with the cut off finger tips, hemmed.

Niki said...

Let's not forget the "CIRCLE OF ONE".... Pete - Mike - Tammy - Alex, you guys provided alot of positive energy and inspiration in there.

CookieTea said...

I used to hate hemming those gloves. I sure hope they come that way now. What about that awful cumberbun (sp?)? Was that necessary? And the half-a cape? Who designed those.

Question: What was the name of the guy who would write the drills for Mr. Walters?

Kara said...

Bill something or other did the half-time routine...and I remember Alan Walterman (Ivy's brother) did our colorguard routines for awhile

CookieTea said...

Kara,
Thanks. I could NOT remember his name. I wonder what happened to him.

juan canasi said...

do you guys remember when Tammy DeSoto got hit on the head with a football before the game? That was kinda funny... sorry Tammy

CookieTea said...

juan,
I totally forgot about that! Wow. That was funny.
