9/3/22 University of Florida Marching Gator Band Pre-game practice

The University of Florida Fighting Gators Marching Band take the field Saturday morning to practice their traditional pre-game show. Marching band practice takes place at their own practice field, Pony Field, which is a replica of the field at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium. This weekend's practice was hot and sunny, but the weather deteriorated throughout the course of the day, and unfortunately, the band was unable to take the field by the 7pm game time due to severe weather conditions. The band's first pre-game and halftime shows were played in the stands.

I’ve never seen that field painted. I’m assuming that’s the field south of campus close to Shands

The field was renovated thanks to a lot of the contributions and support from the Gator Band Alumni and was finished around 2018ish. The paint also reflects the paint in Ben Hill as well.
