Durring the motivational speech from the junior drum major at the competition saturday (she said they played the nose game and she lost so she had to give the speech) "Remember- winning isn't everything... but wanting to win is."

After our warmup on the field at a contest:
BD: A duck walks into a drugstore, goes up to the drugist and says "give me some chapstick-" Whole 280-person marching band: (yelling) PUT IT ON MY BILL!

Our assistant BD likes to say things along the lines of, "That was good. Lets make sure it's not a fluke (sp?). Do it again!" and sometimes if we mess it up after that he goes, "It was a fluke."
Today our Assis. BD said, while we were just standing around while our BD helped another member with his spot, "Joke of the day!" And told a really stupid joke. He does that a lot. Like when it was storming at one of our contests and we were stuck on the buses for like, half an hour or longer he came on the bust and started telling us really bad jokes. One was great because he said, "How do you tune two oboes?" The answer, of course, was "you shoot one of them" but someone instead shouted "YOU SHOOT *insert trumpet players name here*" It was funny!

today me and my friend were talking on the bus:
me: it's a good thing that our band is so good. It would really suck if our football team was bad and so was our band.
Friend: Ya that's why the band makes up for what the football team cant do. And that's win.!
