kickhaltsforlife Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Ya know... that article went crazy on facebook early today. A lot of people thought it was recent news. It was quite annoying actually. The first thing I do with ANY article is read the date.. it means a lot while reading an article. Just saying. Over a decade old news though.. making a rumble in the band world. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over a decade old news though.. making a rumble in the band world. It's still good in a way that an incident like this actually made news beyond the twitter circles of DCI. This incident was probably the most severe, but I know for a fact that harassment can and does happen more often than it should. Finals week last year was fun... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex M. Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 I'm curious, how did the staff communicate to you after the show. Were they ###### as hell or did they try to keep your morale up? It was definitely Cadets 99 in Denver. Easily the worst night of my marching career. I played contra that year and it happened right in front of me. Worst thing was the announcer as we were leaving the field who said something like, "Folks, it's OK -- they are taught to roll away if they fall down. Tough show for the maroon team."

OrlandoContraAlum Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 I should hope so, since the article is from 2001... Note that the corps they are talking about is Capital Regiment... :huh2:/> I was going to say the same thing! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fsubone Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Wasn't there another incident involving a drum corps and sports team more recently than 2001? I could have sworn I heard something during my marching years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schickmeister Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 1- Cadets 2009, about 2/3 of the way through finals, one of the snares ate it going backfield, and caused a 3 or 4 drum domino. Let the "conspiracy theories" commence when it comes to their drum score.. False - only 1 snare fell. But I'm with you on the drum score.

DrumcorpsmademeaTuba Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 (edited) This just in - The Japanese have bombed Pearl Harbor.... President Roosevelt has just announced. The attack was also on all US Naval military bases on the principal island of Oahu. *cue Doxology and sirens* /> Nobody at all?
