Carolina Crown 2019


Recommended Posts

What a difference a week makes. 

Hope has returned and Crown’s resurgence of late has raised expectations exponentially. Even the staunchest critics are likely to concede that CC’s in play, with the DCI world now focused on Indy.

As we wait impatiently for Thursday, thoughts tend to wander, if for no other reason than to ward off the obsession that can overtake hard core fans on finals week. In a bit of whimsy, I thought back to some of the epic finishes. There are many I’m sure, but [with a nod to showing my age], SCV ‘89 and Star ‘91 are, even after 3 decades, held in high regard.

So the question, for all you arm chair, show designers and GE gurus: if you could call an Aaron Rogers(esque) audible, for a Hail Mary maneuver/GE tweek/you name it, for Crown to implement on Saturday night, what would it be?

Crown to Crown...FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GIVE US A CROWN TO CROWN!!! 

I need it to start with the Sacktig crown on the 4 count hold where the company front hold currently is (they move to the crown on the whole at the end of that standstill, go bat sh!t crazy with the folding and rotating lines, and the last 8 counts before the final hold slow down to a halftime 4 count step (to build anticipation) into the traditional 3 point crown that we all grew to love.

Simply giving a “like” to that could not adequately communicate my agreement with your suggestion. Pure GOLD!!!

I kinda always liked Phantoms closer to On Air .. but I love a heavy flag finish. Whatever year that was.

I mean, I teach visual for a living, so some of what I speak of I actually do know about. Lmao. I think it would also tie the whole Beneath the Surface theme together as well, as in saying "Yes we are going in a new direction, but we will always be the Crown you grew to love."
