The next day, we had to spray paint our kundey because it needed some touch up, so right outside the main lobby we sprayed the shit out of our kundey and left huge black spray paint marks on the pavement hahaha.
Dudeeeeee reading your story reminds me of an old highschool incident ....
so we were doing one of those old school shitty but really fun highschool balleh daler mehndi type performances, before the sgpd days

so like 2 hours before the show, everybody is getting ready n practicing, there are dress rehearsals going on, cast call happened.. and the thought finally dawned on us that we needed dangs. we practiced with pool table sticks at a rich kid's house but we just realized we needed actual sticks !

so i think some kid quickly picked up some short shitty sticks from home depot or a hardware store, we didnt know what real dangs looked like. so everyones panicking, our school is calling us to come, people prolly started entering the auditorium .... meanwhile I'm taking an amazing dump, n BAM all of a sudden somebody's banging on the door yelling WE NEED TO PAINT THE STICKS
at that point we realized, we can't just use regular light birch brown wooden sticks with splinters popping out, we actually need to paint them so they can be visible with the lighting

So I come out, stick the sticks into the ground at a friend's backyard, we find some cheap red spray paint, n I'm spraying them in my underwear (didn't wanna get paint on my pants) like 45 mins before the show .... glad to say they dried and we made the show n used our meter stick length red spray painted wannabe dangs :D
performance sucked but good old highschool days !

^^^similar thing happened to is when we did bhangra in our high school for the first time in it's 110 year of history.

So we practiced our dang moves without the dangs. We get our t- shirts made and the next thing we know we are still mising the dangs and only 2 days left for the show. We get like 5-6 brooms, take their sticks off and put electrical tape and gift wrap on it.
All that hard work paid good when we finished and the whole auditorium was on its feet.

AVAP 08 one of our guys wore a Penguin costume after the competition and afterparty at the team hotel, walking around like it was no big deal.

The next day people were wondering if they were really drunk and imagined the penguin or if it was for real.

Boston 2006 when a few of the duniya boys were wondering the streets and we walked into an alley. Balraj (jawani dholi) walks into this caged area and the door shuts. He was sh*tting bricks cuz he thought he was locked in and tried climbing......the door wasnt locked. As he was halfway up the cage, we open the door. We all died laughing......this one isnt funny, more memorable....walking to boston 06 venue in our vardiyan while raju played dhol. People on the streets loved it.
Funny, Balraj never shared this moment with us! Or any other moments come to think of it!!!!

SOOOOOOO Its Bruin bhangra 09..sun is shining..grass is greener than ever..Bharathi (Jawani bhangras captain) is sitting on a park bench with a man..chit chatting..birds singing..trees in the distance...so we all notice that the conversation is going quite well..bharathi is throwing back her head laughing..wind blowing in her hair..one strand falls in her face and the man takes his hand and gently moves it away from her eyes...then we all decide to creep up behind them..then as we are directly behind start to sing REALLY REALLY LOUD.

Haha what I heard is that AEG apparently went to the lincoln monument drunk as shit, prayed to the Abe Lincoln statue that they would win Elite 8, and offered Reese's pieces as prasad. I also heard something about they doing a puja or something and tossing black label in the reflecting pool. Haha I think I heard this either from their liaison or from someone else on the staff, so this might not be 100% accurate.
+10000 for literally laughing out loud in bio lecture while reading this. that was an epic wknd :)

BBC 08 we had Coolio on our floor, then he got kicked out haha
Damn Coolio is everywhere. We have seen him at random hotels/casinos in Detroit too. He partied with a Punjabi wedding here, even did Gangstas Paradise for no reason.
epic night
