I don't think I have ever seen a Virginia Tech marching band show, but I stumbled on to this bit of their traditional performance today.

According to research, they do this routine every week, since the team name is "Hokies."

Not good on old men or fat folks. Looks like fun. But.... I think I'll have to pass! :)

I had the Conn "jumbo" off the stand yesterday for a couple of visitors to have a little fun with.

I have shared the field with them (when I marched with Univ. of Virginia) and yes they do the dance at every show..
