Three members of the Southern University band were beaten with a 2x4 wooden board as part of initiation into the band’s French horn section,

This is from the ONION, right? What idiot would submit to being beaten with a 2x4....., and to play the french horn in a marching band????? Life is sure weird.

Oh, but this isn't just any band! This is the Southern University Human Jukebox marching band!

Check out this awesome video at their website:

it totally doesn't freeze up again and again making the school look like a collection of substandard morons. There's even an application there so you can join the band, I know I filled it out. See, you can print it out and mail it in with a stamp and envelope, it's not on line or nothin'. And they even ask if you own your own instrument, that's a plus right there, cause it's hard to share with a bandmate.

And French Horn is definitely the toughest instrument in the band. This story just proves it. Just like in high school, you don't mess with the guys in the knitting club because they'll stab you with their knitting needles.
