Leland Stanford Junior University Marching Band's Alamo Bowl Dog and Pony Show

[SparkleFrog]

You have sixty minutes per game to watch men in tight pants run around. Indulge us the few moments during pre-game and intermissions for boobs and hair tosses.

Ok. I hear ya. But the guys who are running around in tight pants aren’t chosen for their looks, per se. I mean, some ladies might be into Big Uglies and bellies and what not, but...yeah...no thanks. Not for this girl.

old white conservatives have lost any sense of humor. maybe they never had it to begin with.

Almost nobody was offended by it. We all just thought it was a darning awful halftime performance.

THIS!

If that performance is what passes for humorous then I agree. But if a young Asian liberal finds that show humorous (or even mediocre satire) then humor is indeed dead. Not even decent Stern-like shock value.

Thought it was kind of meh. The boos made it seem like those in attendance were offended. If they were, shame on them. If they were booing because the jokes were bad, then fine.

They had 1 young lady twirling the baton. I approved.

Some pretty funny stuff actually if you take it in the right context (humor/trolling) ...

Not funny in the least bit. With all the talented comedy writers in California they couldn' find one to write a funny script? This is Howdy Doody level of humor. They need to stick to mathing and sciencing.

Cuts both ways: last time I checked old white conservatives didn’t invent ‘safe places’ or triggering. It isn’t old white conservatives keeping comedians from performing on college campuses. I do agree that the Stanford band half time show shouldn’t have offended anyone.

I'm too busy trying to run a business to be triggered. My "safe" places are my church, my gym, and my office, not to mention at home w my dog.

It reminds me of when Tim Whatley converted to Judaism and Jerry suspected it was for the jokes. When asked if it offended him as a Jew he replied "no, it offends me as a comedian."

Dilly Dilly! Seinfeld was genius!

Have never ever found Jerry Seinfeld funny.

Yet you found their stupid bit funny.

What? What bit? The dilly dilly?

 

[Frog-in-law1995]

Never watched a single full episode of Seinfeld. Tried a few times...just not my cup of tea. Can’t really explain it.

It was not funny until the fans started booing. Then the "non-denominational Christmas shrubbery" made me laugh. The music was bad, though. I give the performance:
4 Stars for effort
0 Stars for musical talent
5 Stars for audience participation

Overall 3 Star rating.
