12/2/89

FORMATION: MOB on sideline

ANNOUNCER: It is December 2nd, 1989. Today marks a solemn occasion in Rice athletics: the last MOB show of the Eighties. Unless we go to a bowl game. In tribute to this momentous occasion, the MOB takes a look back now at it roots, to discover the creative forces that spawned it. After countless minutes of research, our crack research team, Ken and Barbie, have rediscovered this fountain of perpetual youth. THEY believe it all began with a mouse.

MUSIC: Eat 'em Up/Mickey Mouse

ACTION: Band plays, then SA's dressed as wabbits and such run/dance out of tunnel with Mickey in the lead

FORMATION: BOWL

ANNOUNCER: Yes, there's nothing more American than killing that Saturday morning hangover with cartoons and the Breakfast of Champions :

a bowl of Cheerios - and a beer. Speaking of BOWLS, the MOB thought it would be nice to give the Cougars the only bowl they'll see this year.

MUSIC: FLINTSTONES

ACTION: SA's throw cereal to student section

FORMATION: RUNWAY

MUSIC: WILLIAM TELL OVERTURE

ACTION: Wabbits and ducks get chased by Elmuhs, who chase whichever group's sign is up(duck season or rabbit season), until it reads REF SEASON, when they all start to chase refs. Ken runs over cardboard ones.

ANNOUNCER: The MOB would like to dedicate its last Louie of the eighties to everyone that makes our job a little bit easier. The SMU football program -- Aggies --
