Bring out Gifs!

UNF. I love marching bands! As my extracurricular in high school, it holds a high spot in my heart. :heart: And I really wish more people would watch shows (or at least DCI) because the amount of work that goes into them is pretty near insane.
Fun fact: the late George Zingali (the designer of the Cross to Cross drill I posted above) was invited to come work with the WVU Marching Band back in '89 when we was the drill designer for the Cadets. He must've gotten a little freaked out by having nearly 400 people to work with, but we got all straight lines and square corners. Exactly the opposite of what our band director was hoping for. We wound up trashing the whole drill and starting over.

Not-so-fun fact: a few months ago I was trying to remember Mr. Zingali's name and what became of him since he worked with the band. Turned out he had died TWENTY YEARS AGO while I wasn't paying attention. :(
