NSU team joke included in the list of the funniest in the history of KVN

The joke sounded in the semi-finals of the Major League in 1988 and became a parody of the Soviet slogan "The Party is our helmsman!". The reaction of the audience to the performance lasted about 1.5 minutes. The joke quickly became popular and became one of the unofficial slogans of the era of perestroika, reflecting public sentiment and expectations for change.

The NSU team is considered one of the brightest teams in the history of the revived KVN. Novosibirsk participants achieved victory in the Higher League and left a noticeable mark in the history of domestic humor.

KVN first aired on November 8, 1961. Initially, the program was conceived as a TV quiz for student teams, but participants were allowed to go beyond answers to questions and added elements of improvisation. In 1964, the host of the program was Alexander Maslyakov.

In 1971, the program was closed, but 15 years later, in 1986, it returned to television. Since then, KVN has again become a popular platform for satire, improvisation and stage humor. Over the decades, the game has become a launch pad for many famous artists and TV presenters. Today, the International Union of KVN unites more than seven thousand teams from different countries of the post-Soviet space.

Earlier, "MK in Novosibirsk" reported that an assistant professor of NSPU named seven cartoons for family viewing on Animation Day.
