StarOrg Posted June 29, 2008 Author Share Posted June 29, 2008 Another update.... 8:30 .... well a tad behind now <catches breath>.... Baton Rouge Thunder just finished to standing O...which there have been crowds up and down all day and night, record crowd tonight.... 13,824 paid. Revelation is up next so were about 15 minutes delayed...not bad considering we had a decent shower during Portal's opening movements. We took a 20 minute break for the rain and allowed them to reset. We've got most of the corps feed now with 2 left to go. Thanks again to Outback. Homestretch now with last 6 corps. Really looking forward to the retreat and CUP presentations. Been a great show thanks to the dedication of these kids and seeing their support in the stands for all the corps.

gcurrier Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 I have to say its a great pleasure to be here live at the show tonight not as a competitor or as a reporter for DCPI Times but JUST pure pleasure to see what a great job all these kids do--especially to my fellow hall of famer Mitch and Star ORG! Great job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
