Cool story! This the one? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=X7XKvtvruv8
My flag coach was with the Madison Scouts. Also had a couple of friends in Southwind before they folded.
The 'Zingali Zipper', named after the late George Zingali. I actually dated a girl from Cadets that year.
One year, in Whitewater, WI (which we all hated because of the mosqitoes and the grass was unusually slippery), I was standing on the sideline watching the Cadets. Here comes the 'Zingali Zipper', right toward me. One of them slipped and caused a big ol' pileup. About 6 people involved. They IMMEDIATELY got back up and finished.
Happened right in front of me. I doubt anyone in the stands even noticed, it happened so fast.
Drum Corps memories. I have thousands of them.
