    Most games were on a friday so the schedule would look like this for a student.

     

    1. Band Practice 7am-8:30
    2. Somefolks stayed in the band room throughout the day
    3. Others went to 1st & 2nd Block periods.. on gameday there was no real agenda in school
    4. 1st & Second Lunch Periods we would leave campus  and go to Burgerking or where ever there's food.
    5. Order a Big meal Grub like crazy
    6.  Chill til it's time to meet up in the bandroom.  
    7. We'd meet up in the bandroom
    8. Uniformity Check...
    9.  run through all the soings for about 30 minutes
    10.  Hit the field. to make sure the show was cleaned up,,,
    11. We Load the buses
    12. Haze the crabs throughout the ride to the stadium (which usually was a short ride) lol
  • Here the games usually start at around 7:00 pm.

    1. Pep Rally usually takes the place of 4th block. So everyone went strait to the band room right after lunch at 1:00 or even during lunch.

    2. School let out at 2:30. Some people hang around in the bandroom. Some go catch something to eat.

    3. Usually have to be back at about 4:30.

    4.Go to the band field at about 6 and go over the field show briefly then go back in.

    5. Go over our bookto make sure everything is right.

    6. For home game, usually go over the Star Spangled Banner a few times.

    7.Get uniforms on and check.

    8. March out to the stadium.

    9. After game, we march to the Concession stand to play a song for the booster club.

    10. Go home.
