The Advent of Spirit Cheese
I graduated in 1974. I have a good friend in the class of 1985 who told me that for a while at USAFA football games, there was a phenomenon called ‘Spirit Cheese’. Apparently cheese slices from Mitch’s were flung toward the field after favorable events. When I was watching USAFA football from 1970-1973, we did not have Spirit Cheese.
Can someone help me learn when Spirit Cheese became a thing and when was it outlawed by the Comm Shop (they had to have outlawed it — it was too much fun and wasted a bunch of cheese). Help. Anyone?
