Hall of Fame:SAR

Early Years

1994: Terry Is God

In 94 at Saratoga, an RA named Terry Olson became the God figure of a small cult. This came about when Terry broke his leg while demonstrating a dance for his RA group that he wanted them to perform during the mandatory Lip Synch that year. Several members of his RA group hailed him as a martyr and soon elevated him to a deity. To spread their "religion," Terryism, they performed a skit at the Talent Show, with an insert in the program about http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Nebula/6140/cty/terryisgod.html Terryism] Also, later, they altered their CTY t-shirts to read "The Center for Terryistic Youth." Easily one of the strangest things to happen at CTY, it deserves a place in the CTY Hall of Fame.

1995.2: The Chair Sculpture

In the Writing 2A class room at SAR-2-95, there was an interesting artifact. In the back of the room, there was a large, pyramid shaped sculpture made entirely of chairs, the kind with desks attached. It appears the creators, Ben and Bailey, thought that there were too many chairs in the classroom, and got them out of the way by piling them precariously on top of one another. Rumors of the sculpture spread and soon many CTYers were making pilgrimages to see it. Though it was dismantled at the end of the session, it earned a place in the CTY Hall of Fame.

1995.2: Ug

Ug. First presented in a magnificent commercial preformed by Josh, Kevin, Ben, Bailey, Nathanael, and Chip at SAR-2-95, Ug was carried over to CAR-1-96 by Josh and Yours Truly. Ug is wonderful work of art, made from a old bed spring. Yes, Ug truly deserves a place in the CTY hall of fame.

1996.1: The Gummie Bear House of Horrors

The second floor Kimball hall at Saratoga 1996-1 saw an excellent example of the weirdness that CTY can induce this session. Following a sunday trip into Saratoga Springs, construction was begun by students Daniel Terry (astronomy), Michael Tolan (Math), et al. on "The Gummi bear House of Horrors." This frightening exhibit took the remainder of the first session to complete, including around 40 examples of mutilated sugar. Among these bears were "Ritualistic Satanic Sacrifice Bear" and "Jeffery Dahmer Bear" as well as a bear mashed into the carpet, and one nailed to the door (hammers are good things to have at CTY). Also adorning the room was a sign proudly proclaiming "Don't Feed the Rinas."

1997: No Biting The Signs

At Skidmore in 1997 the administration was making new rules left and right. People were having new rules created for them such as "No dancing in the rain," "Don't Make an Idiot of Yourself" and "No stuffing bras" so Jeremiah and Tim decided they wanted a rule of their own. The solution was to bite all those handy rule sheets and signs the RAs posted around our dorm. Soon it caught on and several other degenerates were chomping on the signs. Eventually the powers that be got sick of it and decided that was enough. They called a meeting before one of the dances and asked for the vandals to fess up, rather than ruin a perfectly good dance for all the guys, they confessed and claimed temporary insanity. Luckily, no one got in trouble. But out of this event came a new rule, "No Biting the Signs," and a new entry in the CTY Hall of Fame.

2000

"Free Lee-Kai"

In 2000 at Saratoga, this kid Lee-Kai was caught in the girls' dorm. When he was caught, he apparently pulled a condom out of his pocket and said, "At least I was being safe!" The next day he was locked in an administrative office and wasn't allowed to see or talk to anyone. Everyone hung around the window of the office to see him, and he was passed food through the window. When his supporters were seen, the authorities moved him somewhere he couldn't be found. Almost immediately, people started chanting "FREE LEE-KAI!" Then, the sidewalk chalk came out. All over the walkways and even the side of the building under the office windows, everyone wrote "Free Lee-Kai" on the building walls. When the RAs dutifully washed it off, his supporters skipped dailys and stood outside the windows chanting and writing even more. The administration got pissed, but some people got to say goodbye to Lee-Kai. The movement earned itself a spot in the CTY Hall of Fame.

Edit: Though the Skidmore staff hate the chalk writing on the brick surfaces, as it is almost impossible to get off, some CTYers were still writing "Free Lee-Kai" on multiple buildings at least two years after the incident.

Edit: Lee-Kai Wang returned as an RA in Lancaster '04. Wonder how he landed that job?

I can't believe that some of the biggest legends not only happened during my time at CTY, but that they were two of my best friends! Aw man. Free Lee-kai. -Heidi Vanderlee, Saratoga '01

Heidi, you are such a dork. Love, lk

Session 2, 2007 Lee Kai actually made a return to Skidmore. He met up with us on our way back from the second town trip and even stayed long enough to join in a quad-time game of fruit (he was "Tomato"). Needless to say, his presence left a great impression on all of the nevermores, nomores, and everyone else that took the initiative to introduce themselves to him. Lee-Kai is a true CTY-Skidmore legend.

Jon Good

Jon Good was a nevermore at Saratoga in 2000, and during the second session, signed up for the Random Acts of Senseless Kindness weekly, and was given sidewalk chalk and told to write nice things. Jon found the busiest sidewalk intersection in the quad and wrote "Jon Good Loves You" in huge letters in the path. Within a week, "Jon Good Loves You" was written in chalk all over campus, sometimes by him, but more often by other CTYers. In his honor, his name became part of the American Pie chant; the line "And the three men I admired most/ the father, son, and the holy ghost," has acquired the callback "and Jon Good!" Jon is also alleged to have been the first to write "Free Lee-Kai" in chalk on buildings.

Also, because Jon was Jon, he wrote it in masking (or duct?) tape on his window. For some reason I feel like it was masking tape, but I think that's only because it was the same year Deke's Love Tape (ie the girlfriend of Jesse Cross-Knickerson of "all the girl and half the guys are in love with..." fame) was revived, so there was a lot of masking tape around. Also, on the post above, Heidi and LK, you are both such dorks. - Willa SAR 98.2-01.2

I was a first year during the famous Jon Good Loves You session, and returning as a TA five years later, was amazed to see people still writing it on construction paper and posting it around during RASK. Those who could not possibly have been at CTY during the time of Jon Good. A true legend. - Rachel SAR 00-03, TA 06

The phrase "Jon Good loves you, and your mom, twice" also developed that summer. Jon Good was also Scary Spice in a Spice Girls lip-sync (I think 98.2). His top was a bare-midriff tank top made of duct tape with a British flag in the center. Apparently current students doubt the existence of Jon Good. Also-Willa, you're also a dork, which is why we love you. -Farin SAR 97-00

2005.1

Mulan Final Song

After American Pie was played at the last dance of Skidmore 2005 and 2006 Session 1 everyone prepared to return to their dorms. However, right before announcements by the SRAs to instruct everyone to return back to their dorms RAs Lee (2005) and Jesse(2006) played the song "I'll Make a Man Out of You" from the movie Mulan upon the request of Edwin Ma (2005,2006) and Andrew Yu (2005). Due to the enormous enthusiasm and applause during and after the song it was decided that "I'll Make a Man Out of You" was to be made Canon and will be played every Skidmore session 1 after American Pie at the last dance.

A note from rmd: The Pop Culture Class of Skidmore Session 1 2006 found it extremely hilarious that this was played because we had watched Mulan to analyze and write an essay on. And, if anyone remembers, we did sometimes break out into singing "The Man Song," except all "you"s we changed to "Yoon" (mysterious as the dark side of the YOON) for our good friend, Michael Yoon (and any other CTYer with the last name Yoon). Some people in our class thought that this song was played especially for us, though I do remember Andrew Yu requesting it last year. And I agree, this must become a canon.

Note: It is also known that Edwin Ma had argued and fought for some time to get the staff to allow the Mulan song to be played after American Pie. Due to the fact that Skidmore 2006 had only 2 returning RAs no staff member remembered the playing of the Mulan song in 2005 and they did not believe that a song should be played after American Pie. However, after days of arguing with the staff on whether or not the song was to be played Edwin Ma finally brought it up to the dean of residential life Mike Chin who remembered the song being played last year. Edwin Ma brought the CD with him to the last dance and Mike Chin confronted the staff who refused to let the song play. The staff gave in and before announcements were made they played the song and it was decided that the song was to be made canon and played at the last dance after American Pie. Edwin's last wish was that when Edwin and Andrew return as RAs the tradition would still be upheld without the help of Edwin and Andrew themselves.

A similar argument happened Session 1, 2007 as again there were only two returning RA's and even fewer returning administration. After many nevermores brought up the subject with RA Jack (DJ and former Skidmore CTYer), Jack finally gave in and "I'll Make a Man Out of You" was played as the last song of the last dance.

Thanks to the efforts of the 2007 nevermores and returners, it has been solidified that "I'll Make a Man Out of You" will remain as a Skidmore Session 1 Tradition. My thanks to everyone who went in 2007 that let this tradition live on. -Edwin Ma

2006.1

Ceriously Talented Youth

Skidmore hosts two ballet schools at the same time of CTY, and CTYers have a less than friendly relationship with these rinas and rinos. Although the exact circumstances are uncertain, one such rina, the famous Ashley Anne, was quoted as having asked RA Stefan "What does CTY even stand for? Ceriously [sic] Talented Youth?" which soon spread around the campus, causing hilarity to ensue among CTY students. Along with synergy, it was used in context at any given chance. For sheer idiocy and perpetuation of the CTY-rina relationship, this deserves a spot in the hall of fame.

Note: As a result of the CTY-ers love of mocking the Rina's, Session 1 06 started Rina Day where everyone dressed up as Rina's.

The site director (Bill) at the beginning of the session used synergy numerous times in his welcome speech, hence synergy everywhere. May the synergy live on.

Pirate Day

There was a toned down version of a Pirate Day (see the Memories:JHU) in Skidmore Session 1 2006. This was started by a nevermore named Edwin Ma who wished to honor a close friend of his named Andrew Yu who was unable to return in 2006. This was created due to the fact that Ninja Day (Sucessfully done in 2005 started by Andrew and Edwin) was cancelled because SRA Felicia said that students were not allowed to cover their faces. Andrew Yu was recognizable in 2005 Session 1 due to the fact that he wore a bandanna on his head like a Pirate everyday, so in Skidmore alongside End of the World Day a large group of people wore either bandannas or a t-shirt around their heads pirate style for what Edwin called "Pirate/Andrew Yu Day". Coincidently due to the fact that so few people had bandannas,(around 6-7 people) many people had to use t-shirts which resulted in looking like people were wearing doo-rags. This caused many people to instead call this "Gangster Day" which oddly enough "gangster" was a very oftenly used term by Edwin and Andrew and that Edwin was called by people who didn't know him "That gangster Asian" although Edwin repeatedly said he'd rather not be called that.

2007.2

LOUIS!

In the Comp Sci class was a CTY-er known as "Louis". During a session of the "Penis game", Louis was mistakenly used by Bill Landis instead of penis. Thus, the Louis game was born, with people shouting "LOUIS" at random intervals. Then Lucas Lin had the idea to shout "LOUIS!" at midnight on the last Wednesday. Word was spread throughout Wilmarth and even Rounds, and at the stroke of midnight, Louis began. It started on the 2nd floor, but the resounding echo spread throughout all of Wilmarth and others follow. Even the people living in Howe and Rounds yelled "LOUIS!", as it could be heard from the Wilmarth dorm. Subsequently, Jack Reeves, the Comp Sci RA walked into the hall and yelled, "What the DICKENS do you think you're doing?" (Jack, being a model RA, was careful never to use profanity within earshot of campers). This final massive-scale Louis game caused the Louis game to be officially banned by the site director, Tim.

2008.2

Hot Wall

Shira, an RA on Howe 2 decided that she would label a section of the wall on her hall "the Hot Wall." It was meant for people to post pictures of attractive celebrities, things they liked, etc. As a result of this, three girls from Kate's hall (also on Howe 2) decided to steal Mike Armstrong's (interpol TA)photo off of the staff wall, because everyone knows he's the hottest. The photo was placed on the hot wall after being written on by the three girls. After a day or two, his photo was replaced on the staff wall and immediately stolen by another of the three girls. The photo was once again replaced, only to be stolen again. DRL Chris Hazard called both Shira's and Kate's halls down to the main office and gave them a stern talking to about the inappropriate things written on the first photo and the final photo of Mike Armstrong was never replaced. During 2nd session 2009, the office staff decided it was in their best interest not to post a photo of Mike Armstrong on the staff wall.

Vermonster Record

At the Saratoga CTY site, students go on a trip into the lovely town of Saratoga Springs every Sunday. One of the most popular places to go to is Ben & Jerry's, where one can partake in delicious ice cream and other good eats. One of the most daunting challenges at Ben & Jerry's is to eat a "Vermonster". The Vermonster is 20 scoops of ice cream and other goodies, all contained within a bucket. It was a rare occasion to see one of these buckets donned upon the head of a nevermore, as the previous year there had only been two Vermonsters purchased. The nevermores (and those helping) this year smashed the record, with a grand total of NINE Vermonsters purchased and eaten. Two or three of these Vermonsters were not purchased on a town trip however, but that makes the feat all the more impressive. (Use your imagination to figure out how they were acquired) Every person that received a bucket was either a nevermore or a nomore, though one fake bucket ("Fucket") was bought by someone. However, this bucket was taken by Andy Bauer and labeled as fake with a sharpie in many places.

The nine never/nomores that received the buckets were (in alphabetical order):

• Chris Chen
• Dave Clemens-Sewall
• Andrew Cook
• Bill Landis
• Christine Maroti
• Anna Olkovsky
• Daniel Piao
• Brian Smiley
• Larry Zhu

Note that Larry Zhu was lactose intolerant and therefore could not consume dairy products. He still had a spoonful of Vermonster as a symbolic gesture.

Triple Glowstringing

For the first time in CTY history, Nevermore Brian Smiley (as mentioned above) TRIPLE glowstringed with three glowsticks tied to each string(strang?) during Sandstorm at the last dance. This risky experiment turned out to be epic, and is expected to WAS continued at SAR.09.2, even though Brian Smiley is a Forevermore. His brother Eric is a Onemore, although he may not attend this year.

2009.2

Quadruple Glowstringing

In honor of Forevermore Brian Smiley, Forevermore Ilya Makovoz proceeded to beat Brian's previous record of three glowsticks tied to each string, instead opting for four. Even though many thought that the act would be impossible it turned out to be as epic, if not more so than that of Brian's the year before. Due to the large number of ravers two raving songs where played. Ilya raved to the first, Ravers Fantasy, and then switched with Dan Bateyko who raved with the quadruple glowstrings for Sandstorm.

Vermonster Record

With more than 2 times as many Nevermores than the previous year, the Nevermores of 2009 surpassed the previous record of 9 Vermonsters with a whopping 15 Vermonsters consumed! During the first town trip, a total of 5 Vermonsters were purchased. Due to weather, the second town trip was cancelled, but the Nevermores still managed to get their hands on 8 more Vermonsters. Finally, on the last day, a group of Nevermores visited Saratoga Springs and bought two more Vermonsters, putting the total at 15.

--Also, don't forget that Paul Grindle and TDL soloed their Vermonsters. (TDL had Nate help finish a very small amount, and he had to finish it overnight, but he did not go to bed until he finished. It also took Paul 18 hours and 35 minutes (spanning from 9:45 ish P.M. on Tuesday until 4:20 ish P.M. on Wednesday) to finish the slurry at the bottom and I'm fairly sure that he got food poisoning from it. He got pretty sick, although at least he wasn't quarantined.)

One Minute, Twelve Seconds

During Session 2, 2009, two days before the end of the session, the inhabitants of Howe-Rounds awoke to find the words One Minute, Twelve Seconds on every bathroom mirror, and the number 1:12 on every door whiteboard. It appeared that someone had found the answer to the age-old question "How long would it take to get to the top of Jonsson Tower?" and this was confirmed when upon going outside, students noticed an enormous sign reading One minute, Twelve seconds hung from a large window at the top of Jonsson Tower. At first, the identity of the climbers of Jonsson Tower was a mystery, but by the end of the session, it had been revealed that Anca Dogaroiu, Monica Burnett, and Emily McInerney were responsible for sneaking out in the middle of the night, getting to the top and hanging the sign, with Dana Hogan acting as accomplice from her dorm room. While most of the RA's wished to keep the sign up out of respect for the then-anonymous prankers, it was soon removed by the administration. However, the very next day, Anca, Monica, and Emily somehow managed to get to the top again during breakfast, and had hung a new sign reading 1:12. This feat is already reaching legendary status, and certainly deserves a place on the Hall of Fame.

2010.1

Nuclear Barrel Roll

On July 7th, Harry Brennan blasted "Do A Barrel Roll" through the vents on Wilmarth Two, and successfully barrel rolled Wilmarth floors three and one for twenty minutes. After that, he blasted "The Count Song: Censored" through the vents, not once, but FIVE times.

Quintuple Glowstringing

Leading up to the last dance there was a surplus of glowsticks that needed to be used up. It was then decided that the ravers would try to get as many glowsticks as possible onto one single strand. Nevermore Adom Hartell was granted the opportunity to be the one to attempt this legendary feat. The result was probably one of the most insane moments in CTY raving history.

The Prank Wars

The Prank Wars were a series of pranks between Marc's hall of 3rd floor Wilmarth and was located on the far side of Wilmarth and David Grimes was located on the 2nd floor in the same location directly below Marc's hall.

The Beginning, July 11th

It all began on July 11th, when Marc's hall of Wilmarth 3 started clapping for him non-stop in thanks for the weekend (it said to thank your RAs in the hall meeting sheet). Marc then got the spontaneous idea of doing this to David Grimes, so he led his hall below to the 2nd floor and interrupted his hall meeting. Grimes then chased the Nevermores of Marc's hall (Will, Freddy, and Young) from his hall with a bottle of shaving cream. He then ordered his hall to duct tape low on the fire exit, to bar (and hopefully trip) any other people from Marc's hall from entering. Communication lines between some members of Marc's and Grimes' hall and members of Marc's hall sent an unsuspecting Michael Song down to his hall. Unfortunately Michael saw the trap and hurdled over it, and just ended up running half naked with soap on his face screaming all throughout Wilmarth 2.

Day Two, July 12th

In retaliation to the above, David Grimes' hall duct taped the doors, hallways, shower heads, and shower door magnets of Marc's Hall while everyone was at dinner. David Grimes's name was plastered in love tape across the top of Marc's announcement wall. Along with this they wrote on everyone's white boards, not just Marc's hall, but people from Jeremy's and Jordan's hall.

Day Three, July 13th

On this particular day there happened to be a thunderstorm outside, so there was no quad time, instead everyone was inside leading up to the most epic day in Wilmarth's history. Marc had managed to get his hands on portable iPod speakers for this occasion. Originally there was only 1 prank planned to take place this day, but because of the extra 45 minutes that would normally be quad time, other new ideas were implemented.

To start the sequence of the pranks Marc's hall along with other belligerents from those caught in the crossfire of David Grimes' retaliation "prank" went down to David Grimes' hall with Stacey's Mom blasting on Marc's acquired speakers and everyone chanting along. They managed to chase David Grimes up to the third floor and then back down to the second. David Grimes later came up to the third floor with emperor Max armed with detergent as his bodyguard for peace negotiations, but the third floor waited in ambush. As soon as they had David surrounded they started to play I Want it That Way with altered lyrics:

"Tell me why ain't nothing but a David Grimes
Tell me why ain't nothing but a David Grimes
Tell me why I never wanna hear you say
David Grimes is really awesome"

While the whole floor was serenading him, Marc and a certain other individual went down to David Grimes's room. At first Max tried to stop Marc, but was stopped by fellow emperor Young. Here is where the main part of the prank is: Marc went down and "spooned" David Grimes's room. Now some might wonder what "spooning" is. Well, Marc went out and bought a bunch of plastic spoons and while his hall/floor preoccupied David Grimes, Marc just dumped spoons EVERYWHERE in David Grimes' room and put it in everything, such as his socks, his detergent, his shampoo, his laundry, his bags, and much more. To this day, David Grimes is finding plastic spoons in his possessions.

His hall's immediate retaliation was to put shampoo in Marc's hair when he went down to settle it one on one with David Grimes. They also tried to dump foam peanuts onto him as well, but Marc being crafty as he is, managed to avoid most of the peanuts.

After having showered Marc led his hall down to David Grimes' hall for a peace offering, all the while he had some song about being friends? (if anyone knows the name of the song he was playing, that'd be great) In response to the peace offering David Grimes asked his hall, and they all said no. At this point David Grimes told his hall do whatever necessary to get even.

This started with Yih-Jen, Aaron, and Don coming up to put Vaseline on the doors, but they were caught in the act by Young, who then escorted them back downstairs. As he took his leave Todd poured a bottle of water on him on the stairs. Young was then really pissed and threatened to take away nevermore books from David Grimes' hall, which would have been an unthinkable thing to do, but it effectively ended the participation of all of the nevermores (which was more than half the hall).

HALF NAKED HALF MILE

But in the end it was not David Grimes hall or Marcs hall that would end the war. It turned out that the previously harmless tradition started by legend poser Nick Brusco himself was about to escalate and explode into something more extreme lame then anyone could have seen coming. The original tradition was Half Naked Half Hour which you can read about above. The final result was the HALF NAKED HALF MILE, which must always be spelled in Capitol letters due to it's insanity stupidity. Without the slightest warning, a task force of dozens of men boys from David shorts hall and other halls, even other FLOORS were rampaging through the stairwells and through other floors all half naked swinging their shirts around and screaming the lyrics to "Wavin' Flag," the FIFA 2010 official song and the anthem of Dave Shorts hall. After joyfully spreading the love of the surprise attack for about fifteen minutes to all the other floors of Wilmarth, the task force retired to the first floor lounge to celebrate their great victory. Unfortunately this resulted in all participants to be banned from all floors of Wilmarth but their own, and it is rumored that their leader, legend wannabe Nick Brusco faced even steeper consequences.

The Final Morning, July 14th

The final strike was performed by David Grimes's hall of numerous nevermores, including emperor Maxwell Hengeveld and emperor-to-be Aaron Wan. At 2:30AM, Aaron, Allen, Neil, and Don snuck up to Marc's door on the 3rd floor and duct taped it firmly attached to one of the the bathroom doors so that Marc was trapped inside his room. Behind the other door to the bathroom, they hid a bottle of horrid-smelling detergent, bleach, bug spray, and nail polish remover, uncapped, to spill all over the bathroom floor in Marc's suite as soon as someone opened the door. As they were putting finishing touches (writing forms of DAVID GRIMES on flyers and signs throughout the hall, vandalizing signs on doors, etc) Marc woke up from the racket outside. When he tried to open the door, though, he found it impossible to get out. He had to call one of the members of his hall to cut him out of the duct tape trap when they woke up at 6:30. This was the last act of the prank war mainly because the Marc took the prank far too seriously, threatening to have SRA's take away (last) quad time from the whole hall. He offered, though, not to tell the SRA's if the perpetrators stepped forward. Thankfully, they did, but instead of keeping his word, he quickly told the Dean of Residential Life, Mike. Fortunately for those who took the blame (first three mentioned above), their sole punishment was the loss of final quad time (sad, but they were onemores) with DRL Mike giving them a list of "What ifs" (all created by Marc). The graffiti was left up, untouched for the remainder of the session.

TiK ToK

At the very last dance of the session, the song TiK ToK by Ke$ha started to play when all of a sudden, the bass line mysteriously cut out. It seemed that the DJ had really blown the speakers up that night... for a moment, the entire camp looked around in confusion, and it seemed that the dance would end with disappointment. But due to the fact that this song had been played at each of the other two dances, everyone knew the words. The entire camp started belting the lyrics at the top of their lungs to compensate for the lack of speaker music, keeping the dance going until the speakers were fixed again. This potential crisis situation was averted by the combined effort of all the CTY-ers' beautiful singing voices.

Sam Stansell

During the first session of CTY SAR 2010, the name of this prepubescent boy could be heard frequently shouted in a fake southern accent. The story behind this was in 2009 Maxwell Thomas Hengeveld, who became emperor for 2010, was tragically roommates with this boy and was quoted having said (in 2010) "My roommate was Saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam STANsel". From here on out, his name would be said whenever he was in eye or earshot within Maxwell Thomas Hengeveld's group of friends and spread to the rest of the campus. The a in Sam was stretched outrageously, and the word "Stansell" was pronounced with an aura of exaggerated satisfaction. His name could be heard everywhere, from the quad, to class breaks, and even the nevermore circle. During the slideshow at the end of the year, when there was a picture of only him, more than three quarters of the whole campus yelled out his name. The sheer magnitude of people who knew his name and who yelled it constantly deserves a place in the Hall of Fame.

Jonsson Tower Run

After breakfast on the last day of the session, emperor Young Guang smashed the previous record of 1:12 for running up the tower, achieving the feat in 41 seconds.

RA MATT

no description is necessary. (His legendary hall will never be forgotten.)
