so, sunday i am heading into the city to grab a beer and root for UNC... cathy went there, so i can't root for Duke (um... not that i'd want to Cath... even if i did have a crush on Laettner way back when i was in college.)
not a huge basketball fan...
i mean, my school didn't have any sports... hell, it was an art school (the university of the arts)
until one day, my senior year i was crossing the street and this giant gray beast appeared... he had our school logo on it's arse...
i walked into our Great Hall - which at this time, turned into a gymnasium... it was packed had about 40 people in there... watching intramural volleyball.
what the?
wait... what the hell is that gray thing?
some freshman answered me "It's the University of the Arts Artvark!"... not for nothing, but i was vice president of the student body for 2 years, then i had too much work and gave the post up during my senior year... now there's SPORTS in an art school!?
the "team" played against (and lost) U Penn, Drexel, Temple and VillaNova...
the "uniform" consisted of a black t-shirt, black shorts, black socks, black converse chucks... and a lot of non-chalant attitude
the "band" consisted of a handful of the performing arts majors... one guitarist, one keyboard player and a snare drummer...
the school "fight song" seemed to be a medley of Billy Joel songs...
*sigh*
go team.
