Stanford Band tries to be funny. Fails. Again.
- Thread starter Not Sure
- Start date
LSJUMB is dumb. Their shows are awful. They are rarely funny. Their music sucks.
All that said, they do not deserve the backlash that they are getting for their "performance" in Texas. They have crossed much worse lines in their history. Texans are just proving the point that the band was making through their satire. Nothing says TEXAS like big egos and thin skin.

Best was the tweet ‘People like you (Stanford marching band) is why Trump is President!’
Yeah, not guessing that was the Stanford candidate of choice. But showed the illogical butthurt of the Texans.

Strictly translated, Del Taco can be interpreted as follows:
- OF the Taco
- FOR the Taco, and
- FROM the Taco

The Stanford band come across as a bunch of smug, entitled twats. Not doing much but fueling the unfortunate resentment and rage powering our current political disaster. I don't see anything positive about providing poor, uneducated people with substantive reason to feel unwelcome from education.
They aren't funny, either. A couple of the digs might be humorous in a certain context (e.g., "Texas has nothing unique about it, it's just super normal" strikes me as something I might laugh at, if the observation were made while drinking at a party or something) but as a marching band performance it just seems ill-timed at best-- so much smaller than the scope presented by the spectacle of the moment provided by halftime at a bowl game.
FWIW, I don't give a **** about Whataburger. If making fun of a local fast food chain is the best you got, though, you should probably shut up.

They aren't really making fun of Whataburger. They are making fun of Texans irrational belief that everything in Texas is better or the best despite the fact that it most obviously isn't.
That's not true you son of a bitch!!!!
Exactly what I was trying to say. The Stanford band is a joke band. So tell a joke, and don’t suck.

True story - I was on the San Antonio Riverwalk the day of the Alamo Bowl. (Stanford-TCU got 40 degree cold, CU got much warmer weather last year.
Much to my surprise, Stanford had more than a dozen traveling fans wearing their Stanford colors while milling about town.
A slow moving herd of FURD was blocking the path. One of the pontificators in the group let everyone within earshot know that his aging mother’s “cone of vision is somewhere between 20 and 25 degrees.” And went on to discuss how this condition makes it tough to “navigate multi-level architecture”.
That insufferable dude was speaking about his mother’s medical conditions in public on a Bowl trip while backing up pedestrians eager to get their drink on. Holy ****, that story needed more discretion and less quantified precision.
**** Stanford. **** the Stanford band. And **** that asshole keeping me from my Guinness at Dirty Nelly’s.

Have you ever tried to get a good cheap burger near the Stanford Campus? Those assholes in Palo Alto don’t even have an In-N-Out burger in town.
I'm just going to say it. Nobody in this godforsaken country except New Yorkers knows how to walk in a city. Walk like you've got somewhere to be and don't go more than two people across, assholes. Also, no milling about in the middle of the sidewalk for no ****ing reason.

I especially walk like this when I pass Whataburger on my way to Shake Shack.
Whataburger sucks ass. Blake's Lotaburger, on the other hand, is sublime. Our I-25 south recruiters should eat there every trip.

New Yorker exceptionalism FTW!
Those actually born in NYC are right to look down on all the carpetbaggers.
Get off my
I haven't eaten at Whataburger in a long ass time. In my Texas days, I liked it quite a bit. Of course, those were my drinking days and, to a lesser extent, my weed smoking days. Blake's im ok with, we have one in Aztec. Idk what the hell my favorite is but I did like Red Robin quite a bit.
