Offered with little comment:
Marching band crash and chaos in the sousa section:

A band director will be begging to have the horns fixed "right now".

Yeah Wade, it looks like only 6 of the 8 in that section went down, the guys in the front & back made it!
I guess I'm just really old school & remember when band was about the music (even marching band).
Nowadays it's wow em' with going backwards, sideways, diagonally...........whatever.
I'm not really opposed to having some great looking formations & moving sideways at times, but me thinks
going backwards isn't a very good idea......

Does this keep you from falling down???

I still say marching backwards with a sousaphone is NOT a good idea
