Alumni Band

[Beernuts]

What annoys me about the alumni band is that they are shuffling in and out of the section the entire damn game. I sit nearby so yeah my view gets obstructed a lot.

When you get to be Alumni Band age...shuffling to the bathroom is a normal part of the day

LOL whispers;

It was not.

haha! It's like a big section of my kids.

Does the alumni band still wear the yellow jackets?

Apparently did not get the memo about the band playing less this year. Some guy sitting next to them was losing his mind when the stadium crew was playing a song and the alumni band was playing.

No - haven't for about ~15 years or so. Switched to cardinal-colored fleece quite a while ago.

I sat right behind them and I saw maybe two with gray hair within my field of view. Almost all of them I saw were probably late 20s...

More than 70% of the Alumni Band/2024 graduated in the last 10 years.

…also many of us are non-trivial donors to the athletic department, but your attempts to alienate a particularly loyal group of alums is definitely something.

Yea all those 20 something’s in the alumni band are really huge donors…

Not all of us are 20 somethings...

Maybe donate a headset to the director then so he knows when they should play

How cool was it we had a street named after this legend?

You need to relax.

I know a lot of Sousa have high donor seats and travel to some of the away games..

Most people are peeved about the band because the offense, defense, and coaching sucked on Saturday.

Well, if they get upset and stop donating because a random person on a message board thinks they shouldn’t try to play over the stadium sound system, that’s on them.
