I was the wise-ass to the more school-spirit-filled members

What song do you all want to play when the football team takes the field?
Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen!
Shut up, TlalocW!

Send in the Clowns!
Shut up, TlalocW!

I think there might have been a kindred spirit in charge of DJ'ing in Bozeman.

(We did play Mike and the Mechanics' "All I Need Is a Miracle," and I somehow missed the easy humor from that)
