Or you know, you could just be decent to the kids. Come on, Logan. Give it a try! Your small heart might even grow 3 sizes today!

Quentin Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 41 minutes ago, Bronte44 said: Blue Devils were magical tonight! Someone noted that the response to Blue Devils was muted tonight… it was because people started leaving right after Boston! People just want to hate the Devils. That does not make any sense to me, particularly from a financial or entertainment perspective. You paid lots of money for the tickets (especially the ones near the 50 yard line) and you're going to leave instead of staying another 15 minutes? For subjectively the most impressive performance of the night? Also, even if you do not like the Blue Devils, leaving as they are entering the field is disrespectful to the members. Regardless of scores, they work just as hard as anyone else. This is coming from a Boston fan. Of course, I would love if they (BAC) won finals, but they are already breaking history with both their scores and their placements. When your expectations are already broken, how can you be anything but ecstatic?🙂 (You can be the (blue) devil's advocate (see what I did there?) and say the people who left early also wanted to be able to beat the rush out of the stadium, but that's beside the point). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what hardcore drum corps fans do, because the activity and its culture is messed up 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was teaching and I was looking at numbers and that aint it. You can't have a box 5 caption with everything else bottom box 4.

It's not that I don't support the activity... it's just hard for me to garner the support around the winner each year. I think we've lost our values in what we celebrate unfortunately. My priorities are strongly with the corps, I think I'm more interested in the back lot this year... and maybe that's where my focus should be to continue supporting. 🤔 I am in no way saying excellence shouldn't win, it does every year! I'm just having a tough time with my enjoyment of what is winning I guess? Open for discussion here as always... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
