I was one of the freshmen assigned to Pierpont Fall of 79 to help "clean the place up". I lived on 4th dark and a high school buddy a year older lived down the hall, he had been there the year before so knew what to expect, me no. So he comes around with a bag of 'shrooms and a little while later we are OFF to the campus center. The place is absolutely packed no chance of getting into the Bluewall and the concourse was impassable, so we go up on the patio that overlooks the entrance to the concourse to watch the show. Outragous costumes and I am zooming along. Then we see Jesus coming thru the crowd, cross, thorns, loincloth and all. People are goading him to get up on the cross which is made by something bigger and heavier than 2 x 4's. So somehow he climbs up on the street light and is standing on top of it because it has a flat top, they hand him up his cross. People are chanting "Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.." louder and louder. He starts banging the bottom of the cross on the top of the light, which is made of glass. "Jesus, Jesus..." He's banging harder and harder. "jesus, Jesus" Now he's slamming the thing and POOF
a shower of glass and sparks and Jesus falls to the ground. Whew, we look at each other and say enough back to the dorm.
As we get closer to the dorm we can hear a large crowd outdoors, we round the corner at Moore house and holy shit the courtyard is Full of people we can't get near the door.
We walk around to the basement and with difficulty get in through a room window. We go up to the lobby and it was like a battle going on with people trying to get in and security trying to keep them out. Someone gets a rope and they TIE the door shut. I am flying by now. Hundreds of people are banging on the doors and windows trying to get in. Finally,crash the big window brakes and people are diving thru like rats. I instinctively jump up on a chair(one of those yellow naugahyde with the wood sides} and I see Tom the head of residence tackle one of the invaders. But this guy flips him over and sits on his chest, they are right below me, the guy hauls back to clock him and Tom looks up at me and says, "Ted Help!" I dive off the chair knock this guy off him and two green uniform security guys grab him. OH man what next? I sneek up to the quiet of my room and seek comfort in my bong. At least that's how I remember it. I got more.
