Bob984 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 At the 2015 DCI Semifinals, something happened with the Cadets that never happened in DCI before, or since, with any other corps. What was it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hrothgar15 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 They placed 4th down from 2nd the night before? That seems not unique though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Tuma Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 The director did something out of character to bring attention to himself by pacing up and down the sidelines? 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob984 Posted December 23, 2021 Author Share Posted December 23, 2021 The 2015 Cadets, in semifinals, won both brass and percussion, but finished 4th. It represents the first (and only) time in DCI history where a corps at world championship prelims/finals won both brass and percussion, but did not win the show. Not only did they not win the show, but did not finish in the top 3. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cixelsyd Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 It was also the only time a DCI prelim runnerup dropped out of the top three. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob984 Posted December 24, 2021 Author Share Posted December 24, 2021 See above.....they won both brass and percussion in semifinals......but placed 4th overall.......... all corps who have won both brass and percussion at DCI prelims/finals prior and since also won the show/championship.......they not only didn't win, but didn't even place in the top 3, finishing 4th..........

Good call.......that was a funky qf, because BD had a .5 penalty which cost them 2 positions, and Cadets would have been 3rd.......also, I just realized as a result, that BD was the only corps to go from 4th in a prelim round to 1st place champions......Phantom did it in 1996, but for a tie for 1st....BD was the only one to do it outright...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
