Harvard band spelling ‘PENIS’. I don’t think that happens by accident. pic.twitter.com/NQZ7ThlTKJ

The Harvard marching band went viral this weekend for appearing to spell “penis” during its show for the Harvard-Penn matchup, but they say we got it all wrong.
Band manager Paul Meosky told the Boston Globe, “We meant to spell ‘Pen ’15’ with both a space and an apostrophe before the number … Our last formation spelled Pen ’15. The formation may have appeared indistinct due to lower attendance than expected, however, we believe it still clearly spells Pen ’15, as we intended.
