Andrew Luck backs student for Stanford Tree
It’s Tree Week on the Farm, that time of year when the most ambitious Stanford students perform crazy stunts to demonstrate their desire to be the next Tree. Current Tree Jonathan Strange built a giant, metal hamster ball and rolled inside it to prove his worth last year. Pretty rad.
This year’s six candidates include tree-climbing Kirk “Big Dickosaurus” Erickson and fellow LSJUMB member Robbie Zimbroff, whose hilarious quest for Treedom is rooted in patriotic ideals. Or something.
In a year in which the Saplings’ stunts have been rather tame, Zimbroff has emerged as one of the favorites, thanks to an endorsement by Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck. (That’s Zimbroff in the pioneer getup in the above photo.)
Zimbroff faces stiff competition (that’s what she said) from the Big Dickosaurus and Rachel Lindee, who performed an amusing rap as one of her stunts. Lindee may not have Luck’s backing, but as the only female candidate, she’s got something else — and yes, it’s what you’re thinking. From the LINDEE FOR TREE. LINDTREE FOR LIFE. Facebook group description:
Harriet Tubman, Amelia Aerhart, Sally Ride, Hilary Clinton, Sarah Palin, Oprah, Lassie, Dean Julie, Pocahontas, Roseanne
What do these human beings have in common?
They undeniably have titties.
Who is missing from this list of tittied leaders?
Rachel Lindee.
Can’t argue with that, or the fitting misspelling of Amelia Earhart’s name. We plan to wait to hear who Toby Gerhart is backing, or for more videos to appear on YouTube and Facebook, before endorsing a candidate. The new Tree will be announced Thursday. For the record, Jim Harbaugh would back Darius Rucker if it meant Hootie and the Blowfish would reunite for a performance at a Stanford game next season.
