Princeton Triangle Club/Trivia

• Actor Allusion: During Brooke Shields' time with the club, Triangle took every opportunity to make joking references to her life and fame, culminating in a biography paragraph in the program for her senior year show that, tongue firmly in cheek, predicted show business success for her and wishing her luck.

• Shout-Out: The opening lines of Avenue Q -- "The sun is shining, it's a lovely day / a perfect morning for a kid to play" -- sung by the appropriately-named Princeton, appear to echo the first lines of the perennial opener for the Freshman Week show, "What A Morning":

What a morning, what a beautiful day
The sun is gleaming through the trees.

• Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon: Because Brooke Shields '87 has a Bacon Number of 2, anyone who was a Triangle member between 1983 and 1987 automatically has a Bacon Number of 3.
