Will this still be a full panel or even a judged show at all? I’m most interested in seeing how the Mandarins compare to the Crossmen and Cadets, given it’s their first show away from the West Coast.

Last year at this show there were only 4 world class corps and 2 open class corps and it was judged, and the rule that passed last year requires every show this year to have a full panel. Somehow the Mesa, AZ show this year defied that—not sure how.

And if I had to guess, I’m thinking Mandarins will finish *tonight* just barely behind Crossmen. Mandarins have made several changes to their show (some are fairly significant) in the past week, so it may take a little time for them to get more solid with those.

This is what I'm looking forward to.

I'm glad this show isn't in the "predict the scores" competition.  I honestly don't know what's going to happen...and that's exciting.

And you secretly yearn for Texas to upend Allentown....

I'd be happy with Sacramento first.  No secret.

I didn’t know they still had this show.  Bugs.  Lots of ‘em.  Even by upper Midwest standards. 

But now in 2019 they take the legion of fireflies, horse flies, and corn critters, - tell the judges they have LED lights on them - and demand extra GE points for coordinating with the manure Toth, Chandler  and similar have spouted for what they call "show theme for our 2019 presentation."

A word to the "wise" about where one warms up for tonight's contest.  Just posted at the show site:

Due to the heat, the Betty Ling Tsang Concert tonight will be moved indoors to Eppley Auditorium. We will STILL have fireworks at dusk on the lawn of the Buhler Outdoor performance space.
