Tiger Ten Spirit Mission

<p>Well Hornet…an inflatable Tiggerific Balloon on the hill. Go Tiger Ten. Hmmmmmm wouldn’t the observatory make a wonderfull Eight-Ball. I know it has been done before, but still, and they have to come up with something better than the Eight-Ball on the parade field at parents weekend.</p>

<p>still doesn’t beat painted planes, a huge “V” (for 5) on the chapel, or J. Reg’s hat on the chapel</p>

<p>I tried to encourage Potter to get two big plastic “Eight-Ball” decals that were magnetic and could be easily removed from the Tail of the F-15 on the T-zo. Response has always been the same “Dad we can’t do that the plane is off limits”. She really won’t break a rule to save her life. Thought she would have a heart attack after they told them they were in trouble for the parade field.</p>

<p>painting the plane last year was obviously off limits too, but we did and had to live with the consequences. its a balance between getting in trouble for a time vs having that memory for a life. i wasn’t too fond of it to begin with, but a majority decided, so all but one of us did, and we had a blast (and all got equal punishment, involved or not)</p>

<p><strong><em>DISCLAIMER</em></strong> I do NOT encourage anyone to in any way break the rules <strong><em>DISCLAIMER</em></strong></p>

<p>… unless its funny as hell …</p>

<p>well hell isn’t that funny, and i don’t remember 38 doing anything. 35 was decent</p>

<p>OH my bad bro… <em>correction please sir,</em> “… really really funny…”. Dude I was just stating if the spirit mission is extremely funny, insane/awesome, original etc., then the trouble is usually worth it.</p>

<p>lol. i’m just giving you a hard time. as i said, i thought it was, since we painted a plane last year. i just made the disclaimer so no one can say: look what eagle wanted us to do!</p>

<p>and my squad didn’t really do anyhting this year either. its just a bad class for spirit ;)</p>

<p>:) I do like the tiger! I have pictures with it now. I like having good spirit missions around me…the big “V”, the tiger…yay. :slight_smile: 10 days!</p>

<p>Kinda like the “04”…although that one nearly got the involved parties disenroled…</p>

<p>Mitch’s is off limits. So are the tunnels, the planes, etc.<br>
Last year, we tried to hang a banner off of the roof of Mitch’s…but discovered that duct tape does not stick to metal at zero degrees!</p>

<p>IMO, sometimes spirit missions are worth it. Just be aware of what the potential consequences are.</p>

<p>Magnets Ramius Magnets…not as cheap duct tape, but not going anywhere on metal.
I really do think Tiger Ten will be hard to beat this year though. That thing was giant…(Legend I do believe). (Not meant to be sacreligious but) Makes the Chapel look like a litter box in one picture I saw. Did they hold it down with cables?</p>

<p>does anyone have any pictures of the spirit mission?</p>

<p>They used two sets of bleachers to hold it down (had cable connections on it). :slight_smile: I have some good pictures with it!</p>

<p>…unless we could have found some neodymium magnets, they would not have stuck. I’m talking about a large banner off the roof–with high winds that night.</p>

<p>Here is a link to photos of the mission. I hope it works.</p>

<p>what da know… link is blocked at usafa…</p>

<p>i saw it, that’s massive!</p>

<p>Of course that Tiger is awesome. What a beautiful, clear blue crisp, cold day. Imagine waking up to that on the T-zo!!!</p>

<p>My question: How long is/was the tiger allowed to stay on that hill there for all to enjoy?</p>

<p>it was there all day</p>

<p>Already posted in another thread, but it is better here I think:</p>

<p>On another note, General Desjardins called our squad comm into her office to inform him that 10’s spirit mission was the best she’s seen thus far. yay!</p>
