The last time I saw my son perform at Lucas Oil was at BOA Grand Nationals finals in 2014. Looking forward to seeing him with Spirit and the other corps (sadly I won't be there for the entire day, but a nice chunk of it). It's been a great ride for them this season....very proud of their resurgence this year. KSA SOA!

Were backpacks allowed into the stadium yesterday?

Things I’d like to see tonight ranked from most likely to least likely:

1. Cavies reclaim 5th from BAC

2. Bloo edging out BD for 2nd. 

3. Spirit making Top 12.

Enjoy your son's two performances coming up!!!!

I think #3 is out of reach, barring something incredibly unusual. I don't know the last time a corps overcame a 1.25 point deficit after prelims to nab a spot in finals. I know Boston was down like .7 or .8 two years ago to Madison, but that's a sizable difference.

I see Boston moving ahead of Crown much more likely than Boston moving down 

The gap between Crossmen and Spirit is too large for it to change in one night IMO -- Crossmen are the stronger corps across the captions even though I personally love Spirits show
