"I'm glad that I'm a tipster..."

Admin thought the crest challenge was too "unsanitary" so we have a new tradition! This tradition began at Rice Term 1 in 2016. Caitlin Dolt can be credited with starting it.

We all stand in a line. Everyone has a "career" chosen and a "poem" about it. The entire line sings: "I'm glad that I'm a tipster, there's nothing I'd rather be. But if I wasn't a tipster..." (I'll sing y'all the tune asap) and then the FIRST person in the line sings. (say the first person was a birdwatcher) "Hark! A lark! He's flying through the park! Splat!" or whatever the "poem" about their "career" was.

The first person "sings" their "poem" twice. Then everyone sings the chorus thingy ("I'm glad that I'm a tipster...") and then the second person says their "poem" once, and then the first and second person sing at the same time.

The chorus is sung again, and the third person does their line, and then the first, second, and third sing their line at the same time and then chorus, etc.
