yup, no greased up phallases (phalli?) for us
Well, at least not the 25 foot stone kind.
That's hilarious but so telling
Very sorry to say that I know this, but when the Supe's tent is empty during a game, it's because he and all his 3 star and above cronies are up in the sky box chowing down on free shrimp cocktail and imported beers.
Herndon through the years

040520-N-9693M-025 U.S. Naval Academy, Annapolis, Md. (May 20, 2004) - Midshipman Fourth Class Philip Johnson places a Midshipman's combination cover on top of Herndon Monument while wearing the prized "Plebe" dixie-cup cover. The monument was smeared with 100lbs of lard as part of a rite of passage.

Johnson held the honor of being the Midshipman to complete both tasks and was awarded a plaque displaying an Admiral's shoulder board. The Midshipmen were also hosed down during the event that teaches them much about their own abilities and limitations as well as the advantages of working as a team.
