TheOneWhoKnows Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Aside from rain threatening the show, the stands look like they would be amazing for a drum corps show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurassic Lancer Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 After looking at the weather forecast, my wife and I decided we wouldn’t make the four hour drive for the show. We hope to watch the show on Flo. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We hope to watch the show on Flo. We have heavy rains right now two hours south of Canton. Streets flooding, lightning, tornado watch, the whole bad weather thing. I remember going to Canton one year and they had a record 5 inches of rain in a two hour period which washed out the show. I'm hoping they get that contest in as the Canton crowd is super appreciative and knowledgeable of drum corps and they get to watch some great drum corps perform at the peak of their powers. Always a good drum corps night if it doesn't rain and the creeks don't rise. Edited August 7, 2023 by wvu80 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BluecoatsFan Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 I am about 20 min north of Canton, a bit of rain coming through now but it is supposed to clear out in the next 1.5 hrs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wynalazca Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Due to some extremely unfortunate circumstances, I have three extra very good seats in section 222 right on the 50. If anyone is interested please PM me. Currently driving on the turnpike so might not reply right away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwillis35 Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 I am in the Youngstown, OH area and it looks like come 8PM or even a little earlier they should be good with no rain. Show starts at 7:00 but even if they had to wait 20 to 30 minutes they should be able to get this in. If it was not for a gig I would be going. My girlfriend is heading out though. So I should get a good report of things. I may be able to catch some on Flo when I get home. Not sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhioBoy_99 Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Unfortunately not able to make it to the show tonight. Will be watching on Flo tho. Always cherish getting to see the corps right before they’re off to Indy. Wishing a safe and great run to everyone performing! And go Bloo! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrk Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Made the drive from Indy and have been singing the "rain, rain, go away" song all day. Raining hard in N. Canton right now, but based on the forecast, I'm cautiously optimistic. Besides, rain is good for Gardens, right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
