Identify this Buffy Prop for me, please

My wife bought a couple of Season 4 or 5 props from 20th Century Fox (that’s what it says on the Cert. of Authenticity) and we’re having trouble finding out which episode one of them appeared in.

She has two items - a “Green UCSD Running Shirt” (item#: BFY3079) and a “UC Sunnydale Pom Pom” (item#BFY20572)*. We’ve seen the shirt in a number of episodes (both items were used by extras, not by cast), but we cannot for the life of us seem to find the episode these pom poms were in. They have blue and yellow… tassels(?) and, logically, would’ve been used in a scene with cheerleaders.

Anybody know? Pepperlandgirl? :wink: Thanks!

*Just trying to give as much info as possible, in case it helps.

Don’t know about the shirt, but IIRC, the UC Sunnydale cheerleaders were in the S5 ep where Glory mind-wipes Tara. She and Willow had a fight when they were supposed to be going to a diversity festival, and Tara goes by herself. While she sits on a park bench, you can see the festival, including cheerleaders, playing out behind her.

Close, but no cigar. The tassels on our pom-poms are yellow on one side, dark blue on the other. The ones in that episode (“Tough Love”) were all yellow.

Thanks for your help, though! :smiley:

Anybody else know of Buffy seasons 4-5 episodes with cheerleaders in the background?

Unless Spike was holding the pom-poms, I probably didn’t notice. :wink:

Though, have you checked The Freshman? It’s her first day on campus, she could conceivably have passed a squad of cheerleaders…

That was my first guess, but Laura said that she looked for it and didn’t see it.

Maybe someone was dressed up as a cheerleader in Fear, Itself?

We just watched “The Freshman”, and no: no cheerleaders. :frowning:

It just occured to me that there are also a bunch of people in costume in Restless during Willow’s dream.

Doesn’t Dawn dig out Buffy’s cheerleader costume to try out? Or was that a different season?

I think it’s early in S7, but it was a Sunnydale High costume, gold and maroon.

I’m trying to think of eps in S4 where there were a lot of outdoor campus scenes - the one where Spike gets the Gem or Amarra and confronts Buffy on campus, or the one where Faith wakes up and comes after Buffy and Willow on campus. There could have been cheerleaders in the background of those, although it’s been forever since I watched S4.

I haven’t the slightest idea how they do such things, but I’m wondering: since the item # is so much larger for the pom-poms than for the shirt, perhaps the pom-pom appeared much later in Buffy? Like, perhaps, season 6 or 7 (as in the S. 7 episode where Anya kills all those frat guys (and then nobody discovers the dead fraternity for a whole day :rolleyes: )?
