But, I also call a spade a spade. This year's Mandarins are special and I believe they will come out ahead. We will see, though. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mega Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 I am rooting for Mandies to also pass up PR as well. They are within striking distance and it's going to fuel them to excel and turn up the performance. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dog Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Mandarins show is simply more entertaining. PR is boring yet again for at least the 3rd year in a row to my eyes and ears..........the downward spiral continues. And this pains me to say as a former PR MM. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeN Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 I expect Mandarins to pass PR as well, not because of what PR is doing, but because of the excellent show Mandarins have this year. Seen it 4 times on video and once live, and it's one heck of a spectacle! Mike 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ranintothedoor Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Saw them tonight after taking about 25 of my students to Annapolis. Mandarins hands down was the kids' favorite tonight. Wasn't even close. I'm really excited for them! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim K Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Loved you guys last night, even in the rain. Like many, I am anticipating your first time in finals one week from today. I also just finished reading the article in the DCI Yearbook about FREE Players. Your extending a helping hand and the hand of friendship to them in 2015 in Allentown on a much drier night won a permanent place in the hearts of so many. It’s so appropriate that their first time in Indy in exhibition will be on Friday after semi’s when you most likely will learn that you made finals. The reason I’m sharing this story is partially a plug. I read in another thread your equipment suffered water damage. My guess is donations will not be refused. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The replacement mixer alone costs $2,999. Is it inappropriate to share a donation link here? If anyone does wish to donate, they have a "DONATE" link at the top right of their corps website on the main index page. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
