Once there was a guy who ran into EE 201 w/ Kruempel. The guy was wearing a black trenchcoat and a Richard Nixon mask. He proceeded to run down the stairs to the front of the class naked while yelling, "Viva la resistance!" I remember Kruempel cracked a small penis joke (or laughed when a student did), and said he wished that someone had tripped the guy so he would have rug burned his manhood.
When I was in school a few years back there was a dude who was tiny (like 5-2 or so and like 100 lbs) who would carry every single book he had in his enormous book bag..... and he would slowly run to every single place he was going! He would run to every class, and he would even slowly run across the dining hall.... he couldn't move very fast cause his bag weighed almost as much as him. Sometimes you would even see him on the other end of town running down Lincoln Way back towards campus. He never, ever walked or slowed down, always kept the same pace up. He also had one of those awesome long moustaches you get when you can't properly grow facial hair and you never shave.
I am sure somebody else remembers this dude. One time he showed up at a party where we were at and everybody knew him from seeing him run all over Ames.
How about having a knife in your face? Remember that?Slipping and falling on ice is always a classic. Especially if they resist and try to keep their balance before failing. :biglaugh:
People falling down on ice is defiently entertaining. My friends and I would sit by the windows at the UDCC and count people falling outside friley.
Along these lines -
If you've ever watched the band march from hilton to the stadium, you know that we like to help entrepreneurs along the route whenever we can. For instance - people standing with the program bags along the route. The trombones in front will all start yelling and pointing "PROgrams, GET YOUR PROgrams. FOOOOUR dollars, Get your PROgrams" etc etc. The same with T-shirt stands....people with extra tickets "EXTRA TICKETS! RIGHT HERE! Guy with the yellow cap's got tickets right here, get 'em cheap, extra tickets" etc etc etc.
Well, one day the above mentioned "you're all going to hell for drinking" people with the signs were right along the parade route on the east side of Trice. Didn't take but a couple seconds, and all the trombones are yelling, and pointing to every person in the crowd.
"HELLIANS!" "We're all going to hell" "you're going to hell" "beer is bad" "Tickets to hell! right here! get 'em here!" etc etc
wow that was a fun time
Yep. That would have been them. :yes:but if it was a couple years ago with those people with the giant poles that looked like boat masts with big painted sails on them about going to Hell.. well I remember that day.
cycloning on the way TO the stadium? NICE!So here's this person yelling at us that we're all going to hell, and one of the ranks decides to jump out and begin "cycloning" them, yelling and running in circles around them. Classic.
how about we combine both?Most entertaining? I'd agree... the ladies in their white skirts.... oh yeah...
and people falling on ice... just classic.
No thread of entertaining campus personnel is complete without a mention of Zevs Cosmos--the founder of the Nudist Christian Church of the Blessed Virgin Jesus. His Book of Zevs was delivered from the mountains on the horns of three long-horn steers...
Now, when that dude was outside the Hub, lunchtime was entertaining.
