dbrddr Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 So at finals the announcer says "Drum majors Will Plenk and Zim Julick, is your corps ready?" Shouldn't it be Jim Zulick? Normally it wouldn't be so egregious, but since it's in the middle of music, it's not like it can be left off of the cd. His name is Jim Zulick, right?

chris ncsu Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 I don't know, but I chuckle every time I hear it because I can't really make it out so it sounds to me like 'mint julip' :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared_mello Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 Hahaha, I think he did say that. Never heard that before. And some ### needed to yell "they're always ready!" What a clever compliment to offer the Cadets. ::grumble grumble:: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a clever compliment to offer the Cadets. ::grumble grumble:: *Sigh* That's for the Blue Devils, guys! Re announcers mangling names....happens all the time....just not on the CD! Gary Zinter (BD 83-86) We heard Gary "Pinter" and "Zipper" a lot in 84 And of course....there was Dream's 05 DM at the Sac show...Marion Hopper...too bad HIS name is MARLON!!! We were laughing right there on the line! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl306 Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 *Sigh* That's for the Blue Devils, guys! Is it the staff or the volunteers? I recall hearing it a lot during BDB's performance as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
84BDsop Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 Is it the staff or the volunteers? I recall hearing it a lot during BDB's performance as well. Pretty much anyone...staff, volunteers, alums like myself...random crowd who've been around awhile.... B corps yells it for the A corps....A corps yells it for the B corps (if B goes after A, like at Family Day)....and let's face it...EVERYONE yells it for the C corps!

BorisTS Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 I've heard some pretty creative pronunciations of DM names, but that's a pretty cool one. Sometimes simple names like "Adler" got messed up. My age-out year, though, one DM's last name was Mlakar. I kind of had pity on the announcers then. (Sometimes they pronounced it "Marklar" like that one South Park episode; that always brought a chuckle). In 2001 somewhere, they announced "Drum Major Joel Carter, is your corps ready?" We had two drum majors, and neither was named Joel Carter. I think he was Madison's or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
84BDsop Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 Heh...there was one year that BOTH Cavies DMs had tongue-twisting names....Norm Dzedic and Jeff Wroblowski (sp on both) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penguin Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 One time, they announced our corps director as our drum major. Nobody could stop from chuckling after invisioning our director up on the podium conducting. Still laughing now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Adam Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 He definetly called him Zim Julick.... even though we were in the zone (haha) at that point there were still a few laughs on the field Frog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
