What's up saxes? Tex Reese here.(94) Just wanted to add a little update since it's been a while since my last e-mail. Tina and I currently live in Vancouver, WA and we love it here!!! If only band camp could've been in weather like this **huff puff** "Thank you sir can I have another!!!" Ah memories once again!! I was at our recent reunion for the 98 season and it
was GREAT seeing all of the old gang once again!! However, many alums were SERIOUSLY disappointed when we found out that BIG BROTHER (the administration) had put such severe consequences on partying that the seemingly unbreakable tradition of the "pre-rally" had been ended!!!! I felt the tears swell up in my eye knowing that the sweet taste of Fighting Irish
would not be passing my lips.....Oooooohhhhhhhhhh the agony!!! Nevertheless, the game was outstanding!!! and my memories were solidified once more. The only thing that seemed to come up frequently was New Year's Eve....... (start memory sequence here) midnight had come and gone and we were in the beautiful city of Miami awaiting the morning march out for the
Orange Bowl for the 90 season. On the balcony of one hotel room partying: Matt Renschler, Jim McKiernan, Matt Cenedella and myself along with a few basses. We had swisher sweet cigars clenched between our teeth and we all had our own personal $2.00 bottles tightly griped in our fists screaming into the night..."Trumpets Drink Urine!!!"
All of a sudden, a certain sax named Kelleher sprang onto the eighth floor balcony sporting a bottle of his own proclaiming, "Everyone drink from the sacred bottle!!!!" and proceeded to pass the bottle to the beginning of the
line. As Matt R. took a mouth-full from the bottle, his red face all of a sudden turned a lime green and proceeded to BOOOOTTT off the balcony....passing the bottle in between hurls, Matt C. took the bottle laughing at his "weak" buddy and took a bigger gulp. He was joining him soon and now had a tandem hurl! Jim McKiernan laughing at the pathetic show of his
upperclassmen snatched the bottle with determination and sucked the liquid down quickly....his eyes bulged after his second swallow and shoved the bottle my way to make room for the toxic waste spewing forth. At this point I was doing everything to contain my laughter as I watched what was unfolding before my eyes!! I nonetheless took the bottle and began to drink determined to show my superior tolerance!! However, in mid-swallow I realized that Kelleher had apparently emptied his champagne bottle and refilled it with a POTENT 151!!!! Not suprisingly, after chucking the bottle over the balcony, I also chucked my stomach over the rails to its demise eight floors down, in unison with my three other friends. Imagine Penny Moon's gleeful surprise the next morning when we all had to talley the boot count!!!! Ah memories.....
