Here's the Stanfurd Daily's account of the Theft of the Tree, the first theft since 1998. During the game one of the Rally Commers displayed a bit of tree costume and wondered where this 'new tree' came from.

The Stanford Band’s Tree costume was stolen yesterday at around 3:30 p.m. while the Band was performing in a rally with the UC-Berkeley band at Pier 39 in San Francisco, according to members of the Stanford Band.

Lets call this one the Pier Theft, until we hear any of any better term for it.

Rothacker made the following statement: “To whomever stole the costume, you are mistaken to think that this act of stupidity would do anything but incite more Stanford spirit.”

He added, “Right now, I just feel sorry for you guys . . . more than ever before.”

Ohhhh noooooo
