Wow- I was just 14 years old when I marched a small Class A 60 corps The Arizona Musketeers. although we were not very good, I remeber sitting in Badger Stadium and watching all these corps - many in their last year. Venutres were all female and won Class A right? Avante Guard went away after 1985 right? Argonauts were from Oregon correct? geneseo Knights did Jesus Christ Superstar correct? Man I miss those days!
