Ah, we hear about all the rivalry and competitiveness between different colleges and universities. But credit to Yale in 2005 for their inventiveness, as Wikipedia’s entry reports.
Michael Kai and David Aulicino, two Yale students from the Class of 2005, created and coordinated the plan. Disguised as the "Harvard Pep Squad," they and twenty classmates handed white and crimson placards to fans – mostly Harvard alumni, with a few faculty, students, and others – in the central area of the Harvard side of the stadium. The group told the crowd that by lifting the placards they would spell "GO HARVARD." The placards were actually arranged to spell "WE SUCK."
I’d go round to the nearby football club down the road to pull that stunt, but sadly, I doubt there’d be enough spectators.
