@ Jake (#23)
Oops, maybe I just outed myself. :P

As another Beloit alumna, I remember being confused by this list when I was made aware of it my first year there - confused because I was NOT, as the list seemingly implied, unaware of those cultural touch points. In the following years, I've vacillated between amusement and annoyance with regard to its existence. I think License (#17) is right about McBride's intent, but that Hemi (#13) is correct in a way - the list is picked up by non-Beloit sources and frequently reprinted in exactly that manner.

To any other Beloiters out there - How much do you think #63 comes out of of Tom McBride's interactions with BSFFA members?
