Thought that would look better

Well, here’s a larger (though still shrunken) version: http://www.flickr.com/photos/cosmicwonderful/2496826086/sizes/l/

Awesome panoramic

Wonder who we’re playing. Opposing team’s band is wearing red. Either Stanfurd or U$C then.

I think you need more sleep Hydro

But if you can decipher these hieroglyphics posted directly below the photo above, then you can figure out who we are playing:

“Memorial Stadium panorama – Oregon at Cal, 2004.”

Unfortunately, I’m not fluent in English. And illiteriteeee.

Quite obviously

I do need more sleep. Yesterday I was operating on 5 hours. But I swear, if you look closely at where the opposing band sits, there’s a big glob of red. What the heck is that then???

thanks!

I don’t pretend to take the best amateur photos of Cal football, but I like to try. Thanks for the compliment.

If I could figure out a way to post the full version (I might just have to pay for a Flickr Pro account), you would also be able to see that the scoreboard says “Cal 0 Oregon 0” (it’s 10 minutes before kickoff).

I zoomed in on the big glob of red – and you’re right, it is a band. Mystery solved, though: I’m pretty sure it was high school band day.

This will have to do: you can download the full version here.

It was a high school band. I remember telling my friend, who I was there with. that it was weird a band cheering for Cal would come dressed in red.

I used to be RR at the Cal Golden Blogs

Can't blame them though

It’s not like they could specially-made uniforms just for the one performance.

I’ve been lucky – my HS colors were blue and gold, and even my grad school wears blue (albeit a shade that looks more like UCLA’s).
