Last we heard from Kelly Diamond (C'13), our on campus correspondent, we were introduced to a singing Penn professor and the annoying and often pointless Van Pelt bag check exercise.

Today, Kelly's back with a new logo and some fun 15 second clips from this weekend's Spring Fling.

After the jump check out the videos.  They'll bring you right back to those drunken fling days! (plus catch zany Fling posts from past years HERE)

With titles like "Alcohol permitted at Spring Fling" and "James Franco ready to get high on Penn", I'm going to venture a guess that today's DP issue is the very creative (4 days past) April Fools day issue. : )

The history behind the DP joke issue HERE

What do you think? What was the best April Fools Day story you remember being published in the DP? Comment below!

Recently, musician Jay Matsueda (W'95) sent me a video of a bunch of random footage taken during various public entertainment events on and near PENN campus in the 1994/1995 timeframe.

The video includes:

• music by The LIDDS, Jay Matsueda (W'95), Pete Lee (C'95) and a band at a block party
• jeans wearing dancers at the Quad during Spring Fling
• two random guys adlib singing, a pig roast on Locust Walk, some black-lit party footage, a big beige block party and much, much more. 

Check out the video after the jump!

This video came to me a while back but I was holding onto it for Spring Fling time... which happens to be this upcoming weekend.

Apparently the video above took place during Spring Fling 2004 and the guy in the video for some reason didn't have a key to get into the dorm building to use the bathroom.

See what alcohol mixed with desperation will do!

Speaking of Penn students relieving themselves, remember THIS unsettling story from back in 2007?

This video was taken on Locust Walk last Thursday...just before Fling '09 Weekend was to start.

And you just know some of the students you see here on Locust Walk have decided to blow off class to figure out new ways of smuggling certain libations into the Quad.  :)

Another Fling, another year of cheers and hisses over some clever "dick" jokes from Mask and Wig.

Watch above to find out how the group incorporated Canada and other popular references into this year's (2009) Spring Fling "Nude Bit". (for those Friars and Sphinx members out there, stick around for the last joke!)

...If you watch the first exchange, you'll hear the following dialogue:

"Excuse Me Noah, I think you put that shoe on wrong"
Reply: "It's because I have a foot dick"

Can you come up with a better reply line?  
...Tweet me HERE with your response!

Check out coverage from the 2007 and 1993 Mask and Wig "Nude Bit" HERE

Videos of Flings from past and present HERE (including a video from this year's Akon SPEC concert performance)

Thanks to John Berweiler (C'11) for the above video!

It was THIS sort of day that convinced you to come to Penn.

You got accepted.

You really, really wanted to live HERE but may have wound up living HERE and then later HERE.

You moved in.

You've walked by THESE a million times ...looking, tearing and promoting.

You've heard Mask and Wig do Tuition...a couple of times now.

You've screamed or have heard others scream.

You've thrown THESE at people.

You've slipped and slided and never broken a bone crossing THIS.

You've flinged and flunged.

You've banged canes and eaten hats.

And now the class projects have ended.

You've just graduated and now what?

You cherish.

As I mentioned in my Now and Then Thursdays: Flinging Nude for 15 Years post last week, Mask and Wig was about to celebrate 15 years of getting (mostly) nude at Fling.

Well as you can see above, the tradition continued last Saturday as Mask and Wig took to the stage for the final act at fling.

More scantily-clad Mask and Wig photos here!

Mask and Wig performs in the buff at Spring Fling 2007

Back in the Fall of 1992 Norm Golightly (C'94) wrote Mask and Wig's "Nude Bit" for our fall show. The following spring (1993) the guys decided to perform it for Fling and it has been a Fling favorite for (come this Fling weekend) the past 15 years!

The fun of the bit is that each class has creative freedom to update the bit's "dick" jokes and (barely) cover themselves in a more creative way than the year before.

As you'll see in the 1993 photo below, Dan Bisbee (C'94) (left) and Norm Golightly (C'94) (right) are all about Christmas Trees and Guitars.


Click here to check out some of my newly posted 1993 fling photos including more scantily clad photos of Todd Lieberman (C'95), Norm Golightly (C'94), Dan Bisbee (C'94) and Christian Fletcher (C'93)

Some wild 2007 Fling videos (including some Mask and Wig performances)!

Check back soon for this weekend's 2008 Fling photos! Have a fun, safe Fling everyone!

I never really partook in these types of activities during fling, but they always looked fun.

Soon, I'll be uploading some great photos from my fling days.
