History senior loses dance competition, but gains respect with love for AC/DC
Wildcat: My name's Jessica and you're On the Spot.
Sparks: Oh no, I'm wearing my old man clothes.
Wildcat: I like the track suit; it's very Mr. Roper on "Three's Company."
Sparks: That's what I was going for.
Wildcat: So, what's your favorite stuff to dance to?
Sparks: Classic rock, 'cause you don't really have to dance to it.
Wildcat: What's your favorite classic rock band?
Sparks: Well ... that's a tough one. AC/DC is probably my favorite. I don't really know if they're classic.
Wildcat: Really? I love AC/DC. Favorite song?
Sparks: I'd have to say ... "You Shook Me All Night Long."
Wildcat: (Sings) I was listening to "Dirty Deeds" today. Do you like Queen?
Sparks: They have a few good ones.
Wildcat: "Fat-Bottomed Girls"?
Sparks: That's a great one.
Wildcat: Do you think people would have liked Queen as much if they knew Freddie Mercury was gay?
Sparks: I think people knew anyway, and I don't think they cared. Queen was awesome enough, and it was "Fat-Bottomed Girls," not "Fat-Bottomed Dudes."
Wildcat: Yeah, that song was about girls; he just didn't like those girls. Why are you here in Cochise?
Sparks: I'm an RA.
Wildcat: You know, when I was a freshman, I spent half the semester here, making out with my hot boyfriend and walking around the halls alone. Is that against the rules?
Sparks: Well, we try to encourage as many girls here as possible.
Wildcat: What are you going to do next year with the motto? It can't be "erect since 1921" anymore.
Sparks: Well, technically the building is still erect.
Wildcat: Erect since 1921, penetrated in 2004.
Sparks: (laughs) I don't know about that one.
Wildcat: We're all about crazy here in "On the Spot." So what's the craziest thing you've seen during your time as an RA?
Sparks: The craziest thing was when some huge naked guy chased me around.
Wildcat: Freddie Mercury?
