This one time at band camp...

[Caliga]

The band at my high school was full of ugly chicks.

*cringes* Our high school's "color guard" had no girls under 200 pounds when I was in high school.  I wish that was an exaggeration.

I wasn't *in* the marching band, but due to the girlfriend being in it, I hung around them all the time.  There were exactly two bangable girls, one of which was my girlfriend.

Same here, though not everywhere.  When we went to competition there were other color guard chicks were hot.  As one of the band parents pointed out, "If gross total weight was one of the scoring characteristics the band would place higher.

The director for the color guard was also extremely stupid.  When on of the judges at a competition thought they needed more "color", up front the director responded by moving a black chick to the for front.

Do band members get to boink the chicks in spandex who dance around, or are they reserved for football players?

The color guard, yes. (A lot of these are regional or depend on the size of the school for the Euros.)


Ours had like fifty of them, and many were bangable dancer-girls. Some were fatties. Most of the cheerleaders were also in the color guard at my school. In small schools where it's not cool to be in the band because the band sucks and only performs at football games, it's usually more like fifteen and all ugly. The nice thing about it is they travel with the band everywhere so long bus rides, overnight stays, etc. We'd play two NFL games a year (Buffalo and Cincy) and travel all around the midwest to tournaments, plus one big trip each winter, usually to a bowl game or national marching band gathering. (Still talking HS here, not college.) Lots of chances to fool around.

Just curious.  I was 2000.  Our color guard were all uglos, but we weren't a small school.  Biggest school in the state at the time.  Place was badly overcrowded.  There was 700 odd people in my graduating class.

Yeah this kind of thing is very regional in popularity I think. Indiana, Ohio, etc. Parts of Texas and Cali. A couple places in Canada. I think it's got a lot to do with drum and bugle corps organizations and places where DCI has members. My high school stadium was an annual venue for DCI events, and twice they held the US Open championship there while I was in HS. I worked concessions and stuff for it and was a runner for the judges.

Last year, they held that same tournament in Lucas Oil Stadium in Indy, so that shows how much they've grown.


Edit: I take it back. They were held there every year while I was there, but I only worked there twice. It seems my high school hosted the championship every year from 1968 until 1999. Huh.

Getting stoned on the couch while playing "Don't Fear The Reaper" with your stoner buddies isn't really a band.

[Eddie Teach]

They played his sister's quinceanera.

I never tried to pot till I was...  Well, never.

There were some hot Asian chicks in band at my school.

'Course this was in Toronto, and nobody gave a shit about sports - hell, the football team at our school of 2000 kids disbanded due to lack of interest.
