That's exciting though! I love when people who do MB for the first time realize just how hard we work.
Yeah, we had rehearsal sarting at 3pm yesterday for our game because we had no school because we don't have school for a friday after each grading quarter so the teachers can finish sending in grades and whatnot, and anyway the football players started practicing at 3 too. Well, we stayed out until 5 on one of the hottest days this month(hot as band camp.) and they stayed out for half an hour to an hour. Only thing was, our members were dropping like flies. It was so hot everyone kept having to go sit down in the shade because they were about to pass out. I was barely on my feet by the end, and during the actual show during the game I was still so dizzy and such. We have a horn pop to the box and clarinets have to put their heads back really far to do it, and I almost flell backwards and when I stood up, I almost passed out.
Try doing that football playersXD
I remeber one other person who was in both football and band though. He is a sophmore, and was in football last year. He messed up his foot real bad(Not sure if it was broen or sprained) and he was out of football for the rest of the year and couldn't march. I'm not sure if he was kicke out of football or if he just quit, but he doesn't do it anymore.
