My experience of the pep rally was mostly:
"Geez it's hot...why've they got a gong?? Is that our gong?"
"It has a crack in it."
"Really?"
"Yeah."
*FIGHT SONG*
"So where's the crack?"
"Lower left."
"Oh."
*ELGIN CALLS FOR 'SMOOTH'*
"Do you have the sheet musi-!"
*EPIC BAND-WIDE FAIL*
"Ew, it's hot."
The parade was just:
"FUCKING CHEERLEADERS!! WALK FASTER!"
"GUIDE, GUIDE, GUIDE!!"
"COVER!"
"LEFT, LEFT, LEFT!!"
Seriously though, do you know how hard it is to march in time with the fight song at the pace the cheerleaders were taking us? It's like each step is a mere five centimeters in length! (You've got to march quickly, but cover ridiculously a small distance in order not to overrun the cheerleaders)
Urm..I typed this up hours ago but then had to shower, eat, and then play on the wii...so yes.
