LancerFi Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 27 1) After Crown Imperial we came to the front in 2 files and put down our rifles spelling out the word "WIZ" I was the left slant of the W, however when I pick it up, I pick up the bottom of the Z. Last shall be first in that case... 2) We added our red flags to the horns which were tied on in 2 places 3) It was painted I tackle the rest now.

LancerFi Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 (edited) Oh is this a trick question because of the disqualification....hmmmmm, you're trick, I need to do my homework, but would like to get this one correct because it's your contest!! 13A) Was the disqualification Xmen? 13D) The Colts dropped the 45 in 1976 placing 25th that year in Philly. 13F) You must have marched with the Royal Knights...and you had songs that were also played by Madison, Boston, and many other corps played in their histories. And you've told me in the past.... :( :) I've got to get this more organized... Edited November 7, 2004 by LancerFi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were in awe. There I was with my red jacket that I believe was one of the originals or close to it, maybe 72..... I'm sorry, I need to time read them all, there are so many! I know many too! I'll need to think and be back. If you see any smoke rising from the east it's coming out of my ears.... :P Oh, and I can't rember how many times I sat on that podium (we prounounced it pode-eh-um) I forget who started that.... It may have said B76....now that's not it, let me think, I know the memories will come flooding back! They always do when you do one of these and I'm very thankful for that! Thank you!! I don't have 76's DVD/VHS or even CD...so my answer will have to be from memory as far as looking....I only have Through the Years....but I can look at various sites I suppose!! b**bs Edited November 7, 2004 by LancerFi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
