Penn's cheerleaders

  • They have, like, more male cheerleaders than female ones...that is, if you count this huge Penn Quaker mascot, which would be a dubious act of gender categorization at best.
  • The Penn cheerleaders are chanting "D-D-D-Defense" as the Tigers take control of the ball on the far end of the court. Meanwhile, a Princeton alum seated in the first row behind the Quaker Girls is chanting "O-O-O-Offense." All the cheerleaders are giggling at him. He is very loud, and sitting right next to the male cheerleaders for Penn, who look like they want to place a beating on him.
  • The Tigers end the possession with a 24-second violation, and the "O-Offense" man appears to have been defeated.
  • I wonder if other people have called them the Quaker Girls before.
