Galen Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Opened! I thought of another one- Chum- which could apply to either VK (because of the shark) or to Freelancers (as VK's rivals) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlooooContra Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Don't think I saw it elsewhere, but I always liked the BlueChokes and the BlowGoats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dugada Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Prior to 1987 Regiment did not have the plumes on their helmets....so they looked like Dow's Scrubbing Bubbles bathroom cleaner..."we work hard, so you don't have tooooooooooo..........." Which of course led into "We take second so you don't have tooooooooooo........." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle z Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 So are there any DCA counterparts for some of these? Sure, the riff off of the SofA nickname was used for Racine's Senior corps (at the time): The Sperm of Seventy Snakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle z Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 (edited) Then when the folks from Bloomington began their ascent of the drum corps world, we lovingly referred to them as Scar on My Banana. Ah, good times, and the joys of youth... I guess that's better than Pink Band Fags. A few more from the 70/80s (mostly regional): Americanos = Frito Banditos Pioneer--in the green/yellow uniform = Peas and Corn Blue Stars--following 77/78 = Jew Stars Glassmen = Glass holes St Croix Rivermen = Riverrats Scarlet Knights = Scrotum Bites (ouch!!) Belles of St Mary's = Balls of St Peter Precisionnaires = Osage, can you see? Colts = Dukes of Dupuke Salina Silver Sabres = Saliva Continental Ambassadors = Collosal Embarassments Kilts = transliterate the "l" and the "i' And those alums from the Chicagoland area should remember who Garfield Goose is: Edited January 11, 2009 by uncle z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
