The Best Damn Band in the Land

These pictures are out of order and I'm not being successful in reorganizing them, so read it in numerical order. This post is a tribute to the Ohio State Band. These pictures were taken at a hockey game we went to and it definitely does not do them justice. Truth be told, the band is my favorite part of OSU sporting events and that is nothing against the athletes! The band is really just that good. The OSU marching band is known for its famous "Script Ohio" marching form, where they spell out Ohio like some magical hand of the football gods writing it in cursive. Its really fun to watch and everyone gets so into it which makes it even more fun.

#5 the band director leads the suzaphone player to "dot the i". You can see them marching out there together. Right now is the part where everyone is screaming and losing their minds. Dotting the I for OSU fans is the equavalent of discovering the technology to split the atom. It changes the world/game.

#3 "O-H!"
#4 After O-H-I-O is spelled, here comes the best part. Scroll to #5.


#2 They form the "O"



#1 the band marches out on the ice.
