Post Horn Gallop
| Origin | Winter Camp III (1979) |
| The Story | The Post Horn Gallop is a tune written to be performend on a post horn, a weird horn with no valves. It is a very clear song and its upbeat tempo is meant to be a rousing piece. Starting at Winter Camp III, the Posdt Horn Gallop (at high volume) was used to wake campers up in the morning. The version we had was superb. Even when slowed to 1/4 speed, each note was evenly spaced, clear, and consistent. The song is used as entrance music by an English football team. Looking for it in movies is a bad idea. |
| Veracity | Undisputed. |
| Trigger | Anyone complaining about early wake-up times or someone else's alarm clock is likely to be reminded of the once horror of the Post Horn Gallop as a wake up call. |
| Teller | Usually Jeff or one of the Goons. |
