Remember when Stanford performed this skit while playing BYU? Were they sanctioned?
The halftime show, whose script was approved by the Athletic Department, featured several jabs at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, which sponsors BYU.

Ruben spoke through the public address system about the sacred bond “between a man and a woman . . . and a woman . . . and a woman . . . and a woman . . . and a woman.”
