But the real treat is listening to the Band perform WITH narration by Chris Schenkel, the ABC play-by-play guy. Oh those glorious days before halftime studio shows and cuts to commercial every two minutes. ABC broadcast the entire 10 minute show. The last 4 minutes of the video include sideline and crowd shots at various times during the game and Bud Wilkinson's Stanford campus tour. This is a real gem.

"A tribute to women's liberation" by an all-male band with the only females on the field known as "dollies" and wearing short skirts. Irony died a very long time ago.
