Big Game Week 07: A Look Back Part I

Hey hey hey!

Hello and welcome to our newest friends, those web log enthusiasts who found their way here when some one decided that our infant blog is "of note." One wonders what exactly constitutes "of note" status. Our organization knows a thing or two about being "of note." Since 1963, we've skipped back and forth across the spectrum of noteworthiness, from "Ha ha, they've done it again!" to "That's the last straw; they've done it again." All we really want in terms of this blog is to be noted as more entertaining and a better source of journalism than The Stanford Daily. I bet we'll be there after a few more (not necessarily sober, even) posts.

So as it turns out, when Big Game Week leads into Dead Week, which in turn leads into Finals Week, things take longer than promised in earlier blog posts. Rather than keep our valued readers in the dark for another day, we've broken up our coverage of BGW 07. This first installment covers some of the Toobz Sexion's handiwork.

To start, we have the Toobz' project, an Embo projected and then chalked over on the layers of our rehearsal hall. Viewers sitting in the correct place in the hall see the image below.

Everyone agrees that this is pretty cool, so we've been bugging the management about turning this into a permanent decoration.

As mentioned in the previous post, we also introduced a new tuba bell design at Big Game. Given that this baby wasn't started until the night before BG, she's not done yet, but after a few more coats, some touch-up and perspective-tweaking work, and the completion of the beer label, she'll be ready to rock and roll at a Ph.D. level. May we present the Beer Block S:



Yep, she'll be a beauty when she's done. Want to know even better news? Three tubas are slated to get fresh, iconic paint jobs next quarter. It will be awesome, and it will be in this blog.

Before we go: Congratulations to Women's Volleyball! On to the Final!
