1984 Florida vs Syracuse Halftime 2nd Half

The 12th Annual Blast from the Past 1984 Florida vs Syracuse Game Halftime Show (2nd Half) Special thanks to the Gator Band Staff of 1984 who video taped the pregame and halftime shows and allowed me to connect their VTR to my first VCR, Panasonic PV-1275.

Halftime: Orange & Blue, Strike Up the Band (featuring Jack Lenier, Class of 1931, around 3:35), We Are the Boys, Orange & Blue.

At 5:02 look for Albert's 36 foot friend, Ramone, from the 1980 B-movie, "Alligator." I had never seen Ramone's part of the halftime show until recently after the video was transferred to the computer.

"A giant alligator is on the loose in Chicago. Chicago? Yup, don't go down the sewers!"

FYI: If you think the idea of a 36 foot plus alligator is impossible, there is fossil skull on display in the American
Museum of Natural History in New York of an extinct crocodile. The skull is over five feet long. Image that such
monsters once did roam the earth!
