The worst behavior I’ve ever seen was when my kid played little league ball.  Drum corps fans are pikers compared to that group. 

Ha, I ran a local youth basketball league. Parents yelled at me like I was a GE judge!

The difference is most athletes play their respective sport because they enjoy and take pride in what they do.

Most people in drum corps will tell you they do it for the same reason but they also want to entertain. Yes most of them want to win but they want to entertain people like us. Put a product on display like any artist would. Now yes I do care about placements but I find most of these shows enjoyable and that's all that matters in the end.

Except I do not think the poster I was quoting was talking about the athletes. I think he was talking about those who are spectators (and he can correct me if I'm wrong).

Santa Clara has come a long way since 2010.  What was that snoozer of a show they put on?  Ah, yes: Bartok.  I loved them in ‘81 and ‘89 most of all though.

maybe I didnt do a good job making my point but I was trying to accentuate the main purpose to watch dci and I though I would illustrate that through a player's perspective

It always amuses me how serious some people get. It's like their existence depends on their corps placing a certain order. :4_joy:

 They should learn not to order the Macaroni & Cheese in July.

My son is entering high school and will be playing freshman football this fall. Two years ago we had adults who was betting on the football games! Insane. Who bets on little league football?!

Nothing wrong with Bela that a little Bird can't fix...

(I love Bela Bartok, though.)

Wall Streeters I deal with would bet on two ants coming out of the same ant hill and who crosses the sidewalk crack first.
