Villagers React To Fantastic Fightin' Texas Aggie Band First Halftime Drill ! Tribal People Try

[@kwlincoln]

The Texas A&M Corps of Cadets are the world's best military style marching band. This is a basic show and they get more and more complicated as the season goes on. They never march the same show twice. They can learn a new show in about 2-3 days and then perfect it. Fans stand up in the stadium out of respect for their entire performance every time. I'm proud to say my cadet was marching in this show and a proud member of the Fight'n Texas Aggie Band!

[@klingterra]

WHOOP!

[@baskervillebee6097]

This was a university 🏈 football game. The band members not only learn to play music, but march in complicated figures. They practice several days a week and play at every game. Many started marching and playing in high school. Texas A & M is a prestigious university started in 1876.

Please explain to the guys that the band members were students giving a performance at their college football game. The college is called Texas A&M, located in the US state of Texas. The “T” formation is for Texas. “A” is for Agriculture and “M” is for Mechanical, although many other subjects are taught there as well. The reason why the band ran at the end was because the football players were coming onto the field.

Oh, GOSH! I was looking for this comment. The people don't explain properly what it is that these men are looking at. They still ask questions with no valid answers. It makes me irritated when it goes half-assed. They still think its an Army of some sort...aaaarrrggh!

The gentleman on the left hit the nail directly on the head when he said the Aggie band showed “tradition, prestige, and discipline” which is exactly what aTm wants the band to do, and they do it phenomenally well. It shows that symbolic gestures transcend cultures, but then again, the British Raj influenced India for generations that is still demonstrated in the tradition, prestige, and discipline of the current Indian army. I really like how all three gentlemen saluted in a modified British style at the end.

They might be interested in seeing the beautiful floats in the Tournament of Roses/Rose Bowl parade, which takes place on New Year's Day in the US. The floats are made of millions of different types of flowers, seeds, leaves, tree bark, etc. They may also enjoy the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade which features a parade of marching bands, famous singers, dance performances, beautiful floats and giant floating balloons in the shapes of popular animated characters and more. Also, would it be possible for you to show us that you're explaining things to them *after* they experience something?

Really, if you think about it, this is what their lives as members of a marching band has built up to.

Its amazing to watch. I'm glad I watched the whole video. When my husband was alive I had no choice but to watch with him sports events. He never cared for the Dallas football team, but since we live in Texas I thought he ought to root for them. I didn't understand what they we're all doing, but I rooted for them and really made my hubby mad. I do have a mind of my own and he could not tell me who I should like. After one of these games, he had promised me he take me out to eat. Begrudgingly he took me. Dallas had won and everybody was talking about the game, except my hubby. He hurled some insults that embarrassed me. I stopped eating and we left. I sure let him know what I thought about him. He never showed remorse. Next time a Dallas game was on, I went visiting a friend to avoid all unpleasantness. Otherwise my hubby was a real sweetheart, but I avoided watching sports with him.
