Don't forget Regiment 1978.

Certainly there were other ample opportunities for PR to close that one tenth gap for the tie with SCV, but the one people talked about for years was the rifle drop penalty. Ouch.

I cant believe I'm the first one to mention this show but 

Star of Indiana 1993

Ahead of its time and still holds up today.

SCV 1998 - I grew up on VHS Recordings from 97 and 98 just watched those years so much.

The Cavaliers 2003 and 2010. Spin Cycle's was designed extremely well. From it's insane drill work to easily one of the best hornlines in the corps. Some argue that it should have won, but I am happy to say it was the first Cavies show I experienced. 

Cavies 2010 hits a special place for me. I remember they started the season pretty slow and struggled in a few sections of the show. But they never gave up! This show is a perfect example of why you should never give up, regardless of how you started. Plus, this show is a constant reminder that being a Cavies fan is totally worth it!

I have a tie. I have been watching these both for days and can't pick

ABANDON ALL HOPE YE WHO ENTER HERE

and

THIS IS MY RIFLE

The other 2nd place show not far behind these two is 2012 Carolina Crown

HMs for Phantom 89 and SCV 87

I’m gonna go with an unconventional choice.

BD 2004

That show gets a bad rap for some reason. It’s really good. Legendary ending too.

BD 2004 > BD 2003

Very tough to narrow this down to one... so I won't. :tongue:

2018 Blue Devils
2016 Blue Devils
1995 Cadets
1992 Cadets

Old-school choice: 1976 Madison Scouts, for one big reason. For a corps to scrap entire chunks of their show during the summer, regroup, and still fight their way to 2nd place... that's an amazing achievement, for any era.
