After all, what would an outlet for the Harvard competitive spirit be without due complaints of injustice and cheating, to the tune of Europe’s “The Final Countdown?...

The study group ended on an amusing but sour note when a Parrot Head from the audience requested that Buffett play a song. When Buffett tried to tune the fan’s child-sized guitar, one of the strings snapped. “We were all sad,” says Daren S.
