1. Women are allowed to be in it now! At least that’s what I heard.
Â
2. It’s the best show you’ll get on Broadway for $7 and without a subway ride and a 5-hour wait in line.
Â
3. It’s also just the best show on Broadway (and 114th) right now.
Â
4. We have a million dollar budget so at the end we just throw hundred-dollar bills into the audience. Free money! (Okay that one isn’t true, but how cool would it be if it were)
Â
5. Chances are one of these “Varsity Show” people will be famous one day. So, if you come, in 5 or 10 years you can say “I saw him/her before they became famous! I totally knew they’d be famous. I called it. You should be jealous and impressed by this turn of events.”
Â
6. Everyone and their roommate is coming. You might as well come so you don’t feel left out like that one time in middle school. Remember that one time in middle school? Yeah that sucked. Let’s not have that happen again.
Â
7. Seriously everyone is coming.
Â
8. Don’t you want to know if we made a joke about that thing??
Â
9. It’s a 119 year-old tradition and even if you don’t like it you can tell your non-Columbia friends about it and they’ll be like, “Wooaaah”.
Â
10. Wait. You like chocolate?? OMG The Varsity Show loves chocolate!! We should hang out! On May 3rd, 4th and/or 5th in Roone at 8pm except on Sunday at 2pm too!
