BRASSO Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 You are really " old school " if you recall the 1st corps stepping off at prelims at 8 AM. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HollywoodNeoCon Posted February 15, 2013 Author Share Posted February 15, 2013 That shows you're not old school. An old school corps fan would have called them the Norwood Park Imperials. :tongue:/> And your grandma marched Skokie Indians... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HollywoodNeoCon Posted February 15, 2013 Author Share Posted February 15, 2013 You are old school if: your corps practice "field" was a parking lot behind a strip mall and under a highway overpass cookie factory named Salernos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 You are old school if: your corps practice "field" was a parking lot behind a strip mall and under a highway overpass .....or strip malls and overpasses had not yet been thought of; much less built!

HollywoodNeoCon Posted February 15, 2013 Author Share Posted February 15, 2013 (edited) You marched 1965 Nats at McCormick Place with your Imperial mom while in utero, while your dad competed against her with the Cavies. Neither knew you were there. Sie Lurye hit on your mom a year later while she was downstairs at Eddie's BBQ joint (pigging out on his cheese popcorn) in Logan Square while your dad was upstairs in Cavie hall hangin with his brothers. Your grandma was best friends with Tru Crawford's mom and talked him into sticking with the Marines. You realized that 8 pages in, it was time to just move the hell on.

BRASSO Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 you rolled your gladstone pad across the gym floor. You are " old school " if you ever felt really really old after sleeping on an old gym floor in an " old school ". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRASSO Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 And your grandma marched Skokie Indians... You are " old school " if you recall using the term " Indians " for anything at all and nobody wanting to tsk, tsk you for your blatant "insensitivity". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flammaster Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 You had a gladstone pad and practiced along with Frank Arsenault. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fran Haring Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 You are really " old school " if you recall the 1st corps stepping off at prelims at 8 AM. And if you were a fan who showed up at 6 AM or earlier, so you could run into the stands when the gates opened and get the best 50-yard line seats for a general-admission price! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drumcorpsfever Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 You know you're old school when your corps placed 42nd in "Class A and ALL Girl Prelim" - and it wasn't even a DCI show (US Open, Marion, OH 1973). PS - Thanks to corpsreps.com, we have access to all that "wonderful" information! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
