ndrudy2013 Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I did a top 12 of all time (there are 12 finalist so I did a top 12 of all time). I based my list on how the shows affected the audience and the show design and how it affected me. I have to admit I miss the shows from the 80's and 90's but the talent today is just unbelievable. Crown,SCV & Bluecoats at finals this year were just great, I can't remember seeing 3 corps perform back,to back, to back at such a high level. 84 Cadets 87 Cadets 88 SCV 89 Phantom Regiment 91 Star Of Indiana 92 Crossman 93 Cadets 96 Blue Devils 2008 Phantom Regiment 2011 Cadets 2013 Crown 2014 Bluecoats RANK: 1. 84 Cadets 2. 91 Star 3. 08 Phantom Regiment 4. 13 Crown 5. 93 Cadets 6. 14 Blue Coats 7. 87 Cadets 8. 92 Crossmen 9. 88 SCV 10. 89 Phantom Regiment 11. 96 Blue Devils 12. 11 Cadets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Don-O Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 (edited) In no particular order 91/92 Crossmen 88/91/93/04 Blue Devils 90 Star of Indiana 88/89 SCV 88 VK 95/97 Madison Scouts 95 Cadets 07 Phantom Regiment 11 Carolina Crown 10/14 Bluecoats 10 Boston Crusaders For all the drama about placements and scores, almost none of my favorite shows won the gold. Most of them didn't even medal. They'll have to settle for having won our hearts, probably a much more enduring legacy.
