'Tis the season for graduation, which is unfortunate since I end up getting my ass dragged to at least one a year. Between hearing the same ole' speeches and sitting through 400 people that I don't know get their diplomas, it can be hard to find many bright spots. However, sometimes life throws you a bone. Mine came in the form of the pre-graduation music being played by the band.

The band began to play a tune that sounded increasingly familiar until it dawned on me that they were playing music from Metal Gear Solid. MGS3 to be exact. It certainly helped me enjoy the festivities a bit more but, boy, do you feel nerdy as hell in that moment.

My high school band played Aerith's Theme from FFVII for State Contest. I was in Choir at the time so I got to sit in on it. Wasn't great, but was sorta cool I guess.

My mind would have exploded if that happened at my graduation.

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater

The third installment in the Metal Gear Solid franchise is swathed in the Cold War, and it's up to Naked Snake (the "father" of Solid Snake) to keep the Soviet Union and the United States from all-out nuclear war.
