Bands might get crapped on sometimes, but they NEVER get booed because there's an unwritten rule that you never boo another team's band (at least from where I'm from). To put that in perspective, we didn't get booed once, even at our biggest rivals' stadiums, and our biggest rivals never got booed playing at our stadium.
Shout out to Alpharetta high schools students for throwing bottles at out marching band , and change at our cheerleaders! Our band director ended up informing the police that these high school kids were tailgating and drinking in the open and it was 🤌
I feel bad for this marching band. To be able to perform at a NFL football stadium during a college football bowl game is a dream come true for those kids and it’s sucks they weren’t able to do so
As a 6 yo in attendance (about 15 rows up from where that band “sat”), it was one of the coldest games I ever sat through. I’ll have to go through my parents old 8mm footage they took to see if I can see any of the band members out of curiosity.
As a tuba player, this sounds about par for the course for marching band treatment. We were always the first people screwed out of anything. I remember when at a college I won't name, we were out practicing all day for a game, then after the game we got told we had a concert to play for some rich alums, and we were cold, wet. And tired. Oh and very hungry. We were promised food at the party so we went and played for around 45 minutes then were told to go through this tent to get dinner. As the first people started grabbing plates and going through the line the university president came in screaming at us that that food is not for us! To this day I don't know who hit him first but that man was beaten to a bloody pulp, and the entire buffet ended up on top of him. He deserved it no doubt. They never made us do anything after that! He issued an apology on the news the next week while we were at practice so we never even saw it!
i remember one time my high school had a game 2-3 hours away. the cheerleaders and football team got charter buses while we got regular buses. nowhere near as bad as that incident tho
Although the coaches were worried about their players safety by staying on the field to warm up. The Peach Bowl committee should have asked ahead of time about any pre-game walk-throughs each team had. I can understand that CBS has a particular schedule they want to meet could have at least find something for the band if given enough time. If I was a lawyer a nice lawsuit would have been in order, since that high school raised money for an event that never happened and were subjected to adverse conditions while waiting for nothing. Additionally, whoever thought of that seating arrangement for the students should have been fired right there since they literally could barely make out what was in front of them.
As a former band member I can relate somewhat but even I've never been in a situation nearly as bad as this. Band members always come in last in the pecking order though, to the point of being treated like non-humans. The only benefit to being a band member is that you get to have sex on the bus without anybody caring because half the band is doing it too.
Peach Bowl came a LOOONG way after Chick-Fil-A got involved. They weren't going to have a bad product. Prior to them, the Peach Bowl was usually not a great game.
DUDE YOU ARE A GOD TO ME NOW !!!!! Thank you for this awesome video ! This is not the first, and definitely not last, time bowls have screwed high schools HARD !!!! Thank you for bringing it up !!!!
I've had to march in weather so cold my hands were too frozen to hold my drumsticks. I've had to march in weather so hot my hands were too sweaty to hold my drumsticks. I've seen band members literally pass out from heat exhaustion. I've had to step over multiple piles of horse poop. I've seen some bad things, man. (Whispers.) Bad things. But I have never *EEEEVER* been subjected to such vicious, malicious, and absurdly judicious treatment as a band member than that!!!
My high school marching band did a competition where the band would play before the Liberty Bowl back in 2005 and we won but our performance occurred when they were testing the electronics in the stadium during our performance. You could hear them testing the microphones and there was barely anyone in the stands. Apparently we were also supposed to get some television exposure as well but my mom said it was just like a 10 second clip before the game. My band director was livid about them testing the electronics during our performance.
@@teen_laqueefa Well it's hotter than two rats fuckin in a wool sock right now. How's life treatin ya, Who-Dey (and the Blowfish)? Did the Dolphins really make you cry?
Geez! I feel bad. As someone that went to Baylor (way after 1979), I was happy to hear about Baylor winning this game. But after seeing this video, I have mixed emotions about this.
Ugh...talk about poor treatment to the band. What a heartbreaking story for those teenagers. This was really just an awful story...and the "booing" was just terrible. No seats, bumped out of their original spot, etc....just terrible planning by the Peach Bowl. So sad--What a memory of disappointment for those kids. Great video and reporting on a disastrous situation. Really well done....and you "willingly went on to Westlaw" was the best line of the video :)
@JaguarGator8 these are very informative videos. As a UW Huskies fan, I would love to see you do a deep dive on the trainwreck of a season the Huskies had in 2008 or on the worst Apple Cup ever(also in 2008). Keep up the great work.
No player got choked by the other teams coach. What was the big deal? But seriously Baylors defense was led by Mike Singletary. And they played Bama in the Cotton Bowl the next year. Clemson two years later won the nat championship.
As a former high school and college band member, this story makes my blood boil 🤬🤬🤬I'm legitimately as offended as SJWs claim to be about...well, anything these days.
Former college marching band member here. I have a similar story that took place prior to Senior Day at my alma mater, involving two P5 schools ranked in the top 25 that year, a future NFL HOFer, a since-fired HC and especially his DC being a dick, and a bunch of broken band equipment, broken by the visiting team’s players. There might be articles out there still if you think it might make a good story for you. It was 2003. I did get to play one bowl game. It was kinda lame. Each band only got to do one song because of some other garbage at HT.
1 and 2 are options. Just tell CBS you screwed up and things need hashed out. Pride prevented that from happening. 3 however, having played football before. If your body isn't loose before a game starts. You run an increased risk at serious injuries. Primarily ACL and MCL tears. Which, at this time period. We're not talking about a season ending injury. We're talking about potentially career ending ones.
@@ReinSouls As a former college band member, I second this. Cutting warmups 15 minutes short is at the very least a psychological detriment to the players, and in many cases, can result in serious injury. When you're in the band, you understand and respect that the needs of the players come first. As far as moving them to halftime or pushing back the game, these are equally unlikely for a major televised bowl game. Moving them to halftime would mean bumping someone else, possibly one of the college bands. Extending halftime or pushing the start of the game back would cause issues with TV. It would probably be the "right" thing to do, but there would likely be big financial repercussions. Honestly, once the initial mistake was made, the band was somewhat fortunate that they got to perform at all. Though, from the sound of things, they might have preferred to just go home.
@@drunkengineer205 Once one mistake was made, some things just completely snowballed from there. But then there's the horrendous seating and the order of events for postgame.
yeah i gotta disagree... it sucks but what else was gonna happen. cutting warmups would screw the players, you're not gonna cut a college marching band for a high school band... it was horribly done but after the initial mistake there was no real way to correct it. plus tv, if it wasnt nationally televised id say less of a big deal but it was
@@iseetrains oh yeah, the seating was its own horrific mistake. The postgame thing didn't have a good solution either. Very few people are going to stick around for a marching band performance at the end of a football game. So it's either the last thing with 15 people watching, or you put it before other things in which case people are annoyed that it's happening (which is what happened).
Did you know that Baylor this year beat Lamar, which tied UNLV in the final game of the season. UTEP defeated UNLV 17-15 early in the season. UTEP plays at which stadium? This is just another Sun Bowl video.
Hey! Listen man you gotta do a video on that insane game between Oklahoma and Texas Tech that featured players like DeeDee Westbrook, Joe Mixon, Baker Mayfield, and Patrick Mahomes. Thr stat line is insane and there are so many interesting little facts about it
@@UserName-ts3sp I was first told what their "official" school name was around 30 years ago and couldn't believe it was actually real. I've rooted against the Suckeyes in every way and on every level since.
Great video man! I do want to say, as a Georgian, the county that Warner Robins is in is pronounced How-sten, not Houston.
I looked it up, the temperature in the Atlanta area was a chilly 45F high with about ½" of rain the day before. So the field wasn't in the best shape.
Textbook definition of incompetence. Peach Bowl organisation should have been totally ashamed of themselves. Terminal stupidity.
I never once heard of Friday Night Lights being about a band contest where in the middle of it a football game was played.

To put that in perspective, we didn't get booed once, even at our biggest rivals' stadiums, and our biggest rivals never got booed playing at our stadium.
Hell, back in my day our OWN fans booed us. We didn't have "safe spaces" like the namby pamby millennials do today.
I'm in a college marching band and I've been booed by the opposing team. I don't mind it though lmao
Shout out to Alpharetta high schools students for throwing bottles at out marching band , and change at our cheerleaders! Our band director ended up informing the police that these high school kids were tailgating and drinking in the open and it was 🤌

Warner Robins HS was named national Champs in football in 1976 and 1981.

That terrible stadium was the impetus for the building of the Georgia Dome

Danny Ford's 1st full season
That sucks so hard. For high schoolers who had to raise their own money and to be treated like chattel is a crying shame. Had to be crushing for them.

Wow, the Warner Robbins community put so much of their time and resources into this game, and they get treated like this? I bet Ron Simmons was pissed

One important note about the 1978 Peach Bowl: it was played on Christmas Day
No player got choked by the other teams coach. What was the big deal? But seriously Baylors defense was led by Mike Singletary. And they played Bama in the Cotton Bowl the next year. Clemson two years later won the nat championship.
*Baylor won.*
"Huzzah!"
*High school kids got shafted after months of prep*
"Oh...yeah, that blows more than the win is good."

Let them play at halftime.
Move the game back a bit. You can do it.
Hell, get the players off. Does 15 minutes really make that big a difference?

This was doble tough. Clemson Fan here (kinda remember Daddy upset, I was 5) and I was in a high school band.
Peach BRUH
They didn't do a Top 25 in 1979. It was still Top 20.
the peach bowl treats high school bands these days much better... pretty sure they bring in bands from across the country now
Yes they do i'm so excited our band is supposed to play this year!!!!
That's fucked up
#63 on Baylor....Mike Singletary
Was looking for him myself 💪
That sucked!
To see about any lawsuits, you went onto WHAT? That word was mumbled badly.

You have to be year specific. Doubt he'll do just a general one.
OR do something less hyperbolic, like "Ohio states insufferable fanbase and it's battle with delusional statements."
