Marching bands? Excellent....but if you want a SHOW....try having the DCI (Drum Corps International) Champions do the halftime. These young people know how to put on a show!
I’d much rather have seen the Blue Devils or the Phantom Regiment compared to what I saw yesterday.
(If you have no idea what I’m talking about, do a search.)
The Cadets of Bergen County (formerly: Garfield Cadets) would be local for the 2014 Super Bowl. Been out of touch with DCI for a while, so I'm not sure if they're still up to the standard.
But all of this misses the point: the Super Bowl is not about football, but merely uses football as a marketing venue for other things. That's why we get Beyonce instead of marching bands.
Notice neither one of us mentioned The Cadets? (showoffs)
And I'm betting you know exactly what I'm talking about!
Or the 1975 Madison Scouts...or the 1975 Muchachos...or the 1975 Santa Clara Vanguard...ah!
Best. Year. Ever.
