I Say... The Greatest Closer Ever Is...


Recommended Posts

AS far as closers, my husband (That70'sLancer) wants to know, what year was it and what was the song where SCV faded off the field as the song faded. He says they were gone before they got to hear the crowd response....Anyone remember, if so please help us out. :rolleyes:

I know that in '93 the guard did a huge ripple from left to right (which is side 1 again?), ending with the corps proper in a block marching off the field in the end zone.

Is that it?

I'd guess SCV '90, since the last note was played in the tunnel and not on the field at all.

My favorite closer? SCV '88 - "Music of the Night". It choked me up then, and it still gets me now. I liked the closer from that year better than their '89 version. (Historical Note - the guy who yelled "All Right!" at the end in '89 as the tarp went down was none other than Mr. Greg Snoeyink - The A-60 Roll King [more on that in another topic!])

one of my newfound favorites is scouts 79, when they go into "the way we were" and build up and hit that cut and there's silence except for the bass and then come in full blast... oh man... so good... that's all i can say.
