Success lay just a hundred yards away if they could only summon the courage to sprint to their Harvard brethren, dog in tow. Slowly jogging onto the grass, they led Handsome Dan in circles, drawing thunderous applause from a host of Elis. Then, without warning, they broke for the visitor’s side, sprinting across the pitch as the Yale fan base recoiled in horror, and the few Harvard students aware of what was transpiring broke into...
