The Horses Ass Award

As legend has it, back in the fall of 1967 the band was down on the field getting ready for halftime. As the clock ticked down, the opposing team was running for a certain touchdown. Unable to just sit idly by and watch this happen, one Anthony J. Stagliano released himself from his bass drum and ran onto the field and tackled said opponent. Lost in time are any actual facts - penalties, sobriety tests, how much money AJ had in the betting pool, ... But ever since then, the band has singled out a person (or persons) for service Above and Beyond the call each year. It is worth  mention that the current Band Director has won this award twice (so far) - once as an undergrad, and once as an alleged adult).
