Childish Fun With The Stanford Band


With the Bar rapidly approaching, I have been doing everything I can to procrastinate.  One such time-killing trip brought me back to Black Heart Gold Pants, a great Iowa blog.  They discovered an e-business called Replay Photos which allows you to create customized pictures of band formations on your favorite football fields.

Now, Iowa took the opportunity to have a little fun at their state rival's expense, and created some real beauties.

Replay Photos has since taken the Iowa State option off of their website - fair play to BHGP.  And while UC Berkeley was never an option, two schools worth ridiculing are available.

As any Cal fan knows, these pictures are clearly computer generated since the Stanfurd Band doesn't have the requisite knowledge to spell anything out on a football field.

The opinions expressed in a FanPost are, in every way, reflective of the opinions of every California Golden Blogs Marshawnthusiast. Moreover, they are reflective of every employee of SBNation, including Tyler "Blez" Bleszinski.

I would be tempted to make one, but I’m pretty sure that “Football? How Bourgeois!” is better than anything I’d ever come up with

A friend . . .an acquaintance of mine who graduated from the Furd and is now in Iraq with the State Department was a tiny bit shaken because this happened a block or two from where he is . . .

So I emailed him this photo.

You’re just so sensitive! But still, job well done.

I figured he really needed to realize the gravity of his situation.

This one is a little bit tough to read, but I think its worth it in the end:
