After they were done with their performance; the staff yanked him off the field right quick. They all looked pretty p*ssed off. Is there a video of this anywhere?

Pretty much regular kids representative of their peers.

If early season Cadets 2000s can be found I'm sure this incident is floating around somewhere. Lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case, it’s probably well hidden. Maybe even destroyed. It was probably super easy to make video disappear forever back then since nothing was digital. I’ve heard this story told a million times over the years so I’ve been looking for this footage for a long time myself. Good luck, lol.

Bob984 Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 We had a lead soprano player.............who got into a fist fight with the drum major in rehearsal 2 days before prelims............he was taken to the airport and sent home...........we had no alternate horn players, but we had an alternate guard member on tour.....she was small and I believe somewhere between 15-17 years old. I look out later that night, and I start laughing, because there she is.....soprano in hand (of course, not playing), learning drill. She is doing remarkably well. At prelims, she marched as if she was in the spot all year long (didn't play a note, though....lol).....I think she was really happy to be out there...........still never found out what happened that caused the fight..............my guess is that they were probably both at fault.....

I was talking about the raw footage from the professional cameras inside the stadium during the actual performance. That footage likely doesn’t exist anymore as there really wouldn’t be any need for it 20 years later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting. Granted, I never marched so I don’t know anything, but I always assumed a corps would sooner leave a hole on the field before they put someone out there just holding a horn.
