    The fact that this didn’t get them in top 5 is... bananas.
    But in all seriousness, this felt right in line with the barbershop style, they were in-sync and in tune, the arrangement was solid, and it was extremely entertaining. No wonder they started to get more passive-aggressive after this year lol

    • @thebrutusmars

      The following year, they did a parody of All Star and there was a bit where they were singing “you’re and all star (points to each other), and you’re an all star (points to audience), and you’re an all star (points to audience center), and… not quite (pointing to the judges)
