I hope the people in White Sabers forgive me and not take my question the wrong way, but are they for real? They're nipping at Cabs heels for 2nd place and I can't wait to see them!! I saw them a few weeks ago. They're for real. It will be fun to see what happens with them and Cabs (and others).

The really amazing thing is that only a few seasons ago in 2012 the question on this sort of thread was 'Do you think Sabers will be able to make it back into Finals in Class A?' 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The delay before fusion was due to an audience member taking a fall on the steps Oh my goodness. I hope they're ok. I worry when I see people struggling with stairs. I've helped older people down them in Indy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh...I guess they are OK. Now on the other hand, the Buccaneers are magnificent. Boggles my mind the performance levels a weekend only corps can achieve! The staff at Reading has created a wonderful product this season. The only competition is for 2nd. The crew from Reading will add another championship to their amazing record next weekend. What an amazing organization. It's almost not fair...the Buccaneers are on a whole different level than their competitors. Wow Buccaneers!

Pit and props are allowed to enter a little earlier, and if the judge feels that they are taking too long to set up the pit, A one point penalty may be assessed if a warning was given first. If they were over 17 minutes they should have been given the penalty. Isn't that why there is a penalty and timing judge?

Are you saying there's a corps good enough to challenge the Bucs? There really isn't...that's pretty obvious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is what I do, plus you get to see everyone, the good, the bad, and the ugly. I am really glad I went to prelims in Annap and got to see Heartliner, I remember lots of people were upset they didn't see them. This year there isn't a huge amount of corps but still there are 3 or 4 corps you will miss if you only go to finals. Plus you pay less and get better seats. I guess the downside is you are out in the sun all afternoon and some shows may look better under the lights. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
