Painting the Cannon

The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.

Okay, so here we have another major landmark at tops with a fun story surrounding it. So back in the day a couple decades ago, this was just a regular cannon donated to the school and ah, and then one day to protest the Vietnam War, some students came at night time and painted over the cannon. Uh, so it started to become a tradition after students painted over it for other activists reasons. Now it's kind of tongue and cheek allowed activity by the university, where students just go and paint over the can and at night time, Tio promote their own like activist activist activities or clubs or events and so on. So now the tradition is you go at night, time to paint the cannon, and then you have to actually cap here at night time and stay for as long as possible so that no one else will come and paint over what you made. Uh, in the morning or right before dawn and later in the night.
