“The arresting officer then subdued Mims with a Taser which ended the physical confrontation.”
…sometimes, a second application is needed…

No mention of Mims’ race, which means…(you know the answer)

..he’s a clever sort of funny guy and a pretty ok musician. You may enjoy some of his other work, though sometimes, like “Big Butter Jesus” about a specific sculpture at a church in OH that has long since burned down, some of his references may be too region and time locked for everyone…

Bye Bye Miss American Pie.
@SNS – I was a freshman at Cal, but I didn’t get a ticket so was listening on the radio. Great call by Joe Starkey. I went the following year when it was at Stanfurd. They put the trombone player Gary Tyrell in a wheelchair and the entire band made an arrow pointing at him, ‘the goat’. 🙂

…that sounds funny, but I can’t find a link. Do you know if any video exists?
Its nice that the Adults peacefully resolved the issue and were such a great example to the student.
FFS, Let the band Play, Let the teams play, & deal with the epic crime surges the DA’s are IGNORING .

Did you know my kid sister? She went to Cal same years as you. She was at the game
Big Sis went to Stanford (and no Im not making this up) and talk about all the antics these entitled arrogant assh*les got into. So I just loved it when these sh*theads bore direct responsibility for losing the big game for Cal
Not only did they get in the way of Stanford tacklers, they distracted the refs from seeing that the last lateral was an illegal forward lateral. Its obvious .. lateral starts between the 25 and 20; and #40 catches it very near 20 yard line
Also, kudos to #4O for keeping his head amid all that chaos and getting into the end zone to create a fact on the ground (TD) He could have had a “Hey Ref, what is this sh*t, isnt this illegal?” moment.
