Root, root, root for the cicada team

June 19, 2004

Overheard after a recent Towson Recreation Association softball game, chanted by the Blue Devils to their opponents, the Tar Heels:

Cicada! Cicada!

Crunch crunch crunch!

Who do we think is

a mighty fine bunch?

Tar Heels. Tar Heels.

Tar Heels!
