Poppycock Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I loved both Arrow Head Stadium in Kansas City and Memorial Stadium in Bloomington. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, US Open was to be held in Marion, but was rained out. In ‘84 US Open was reduced to a one day show.

My very first show in '73 was at the US Open - I still have seat cushions with the logo printed on them. I started my marching career in '74 at the Marion Cadets - I remember the parade mile around the Marion loop around town and the HUNDREDS of buses in the parking lot bringing throngs to the bleachers in that podunk stadium. I was at Clipper's stadium every year, including the year Hopkins ignored the warning to not march on the pitcher's mound... Wow, flashbacks... A fellow snare player from Troy, OH borrowed $20 then stiffed me. I never forgave him but I admit to remembering it more than the trip to Whitewater. Heh, memory fades. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I marched in US Open twice. ‘76 and ‘78. We also were at the Key to the Sea show in Toledo in ‘76. I think it was at the Glass Bowl at the University of Toledo but don’t hold me to that. I remember we had a little trouble with the locals. It was always hilarious to me that six guys in an old Impala were up for messing with 128 people. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved that show! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
