Mikah 93 Posted June 25 Report Share Posted June 25 The worst thing a corps fed me was warm sweaty boloney on white bread, with "bug juice", Gatorade they mixed with their whole arm in the cooler and it often had bugs floating around in it. The worst thing a host family fed me was garlic pancakes. We had spaghetti the night before and unbeknownst to anyone, one of the guys had mixed garlic powder into a whole tub of butter. None of us could eat the pancakes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bullethead 56 Posted June 25 Report Share Posted June 25 As a member of Sky Ryders.....nothing. That is, we were not fed anything on multiple occasions. Having lived most of my life in TX, Crossmen's 1996 "Fajitas" are a close second. That was a tortilla with lunch meat and Pace picante sauce. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WRiddell83 5 Posted June 26 Report Share Posted June 26 Worst meal I ever had was "gravy bread". Corps was served turkey and gravy, but by the time the front ensemble got done loading and showering, there was barely any meat left. So the food ladies gave us sliced white bread and poured the remaining gravy with meat shrapnel over it. I should point out that this was in DCA, and what made it particularly memorable was that it was served to us right before finals. No better hype for your last performance!

What make this a medal contender is not so much the food combination but calling it a "Fajita". Bonus points for Pace "picante sauce". 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KenDrum 15 Posted June 28 Report Share Posted June 28 I had friends in the 1984 Bridgemen. They told of being given popcorn and a chewable vitamin. They had no money. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure what you mean, are you referring to the heatstroke meltdown and Cavaliers/police intervention in Pittsburg, KS in 2006? I was marching a different corps at that time but obviously knew people there. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
