...martial law. The prospect of police officers prowling the tailgate grounds will leave little room for gregariousness and glee. The mood that these officers will set—intentionally or not—will inevitably be one of grim law and order—a concept does not jive with the camaraderie of football in any way, even on the gridiron itself.Students understand the motives for these new restrictions. The Harvard-Yale tailgate in 2004 is best remembered as a “10,000-person bacchanalia with some students ‘doing anything and everything?...
...making my fingers itch to try out that line on my Gibson SG air guitar. “Smash and Grab” is another favorite, with a particularly strong and moving rhythm section, not to mention the sick guitar solo just before the end.

Our only hope is that...

When the jokes hit, they’re usually propelled by the shock of sheer absurdity: Cox manages to accidentally exterminate his entire family, and spits jive and sings “Love Your Negro Man” when asked to play at an R&B club. When the jokes miss, they never miss big. Consequently, the movie is consistently dumb, though not consistently funny.“Walk Hard” gives the biopic genre...
