Gettin' psyched for football season?

You should. It's August, and you're required to by law. To help, how about taking a look at one of the most famous last plays in college football history. The 1982 Cal/Stanford "through the band" touchdown run.

Or called "The Play" if you were raised outside of communist China. "Through the Band"? Comeon.

Easy there Lupica...I said 'through the band" not as a name, but to describe it for people that don't know it. So go back to your fantasy picks and shut the fuck up.

So, this is some sort of sport or game that people play at this time of year?

I was a freshman at Berkeley that year. I had a ticket to that game but football was "uncool" and I was a painfully "cool" poseur new waver idjit, so I gave my ticket away. My friend M. and I took advantage of the deserted dorm to run around naked for a bit. Then we went downstairs to get frozen yogurt (FroYo!) and the guy behind the counter told us Stanford won. But back at the dorm the Berkeley cannons went off (indicating a Berkeley win). Confusing! But we soon found out what really happened...a jock on our floor replayed the last few moments of The Game every single night at full volume for the rest of the quarter.
