Wisconsin Marching Band run-on--FULL!

I have finally managed to capture the entire run-on in pretty good quality, this time from the 9/25/10 game vs. Austin Peay. I was sitting with my Dad by the 40-yard line, rather than the student section. Go Badgers!

[@LauretteSusan]

🙂 Thank you for keeping this in cyberspace. Peace to you and yours.

[@ericbryant4305]

I don't know if people realize how hard that was to do. Well done

[@mattherr324]

Bed marching band in college history hands down

[@JNASTY918]

I go to Arkansas but my dad went to Wisco and I must say this is my favorite band to watch. The Big 10 really is solid throughout with band presentation! Much better than the SEC!

[@SuperPhantom6]

That was Awesome! My high school in Washington state plays on Wisconsin for their fight song.

[@sarabauer6562]

I was part of this!!

[@GOBLUEADAM]

NOBODY takes to the field like Michigan, but Wisconsin! When you hit the field running, you better have the balls and the band to BRING IT, and they both do!

[@yostzach]

@zan917 They are white plastic clarinets.

[@wendys120]

Dang, that's more excersize than I get all week!

[@Free7ZipDownload]

Amazing marching band.

[@sleazypig]

Great video my dad and I where at the game it was our first Wisconsin home game. We drove all the way from Toledo Ohio to be there so it was great to be back home for a game.

[@camellane33]

Wisconsin & Minnesota are the only Big Ten marching bands that have never won the prestigious Sudler Trophy and recognized as a top marching band by the John Philip Sousa Foundation. Michigan was the very first college marching band to be recognized by the Sousa Foundation and to be awarded the Sudler Trophy in 1982. Since then 9 other Big Ten schools have won the Trophy, which is considered the Heisman Trophy of college band awards.

[@한국내셔널리즘이영원]

+BillVol That's why Wisconsin band has won numerous awards, as did Mike Leckrone.

[@Hillfam902]

i like this entrance, I wish that first cadence was played for the whole run on. Very cool and unique marching style

[@boblewis1227]

Goosebumps. YEP!

[@bluekooekoo]

Great video! And being from Omro, exceptionally proud of Alex, and his band mate Brian Bradley.

[@2snowgirl520]

bluekooekoo , yes! I am from Winneconne.

[@zan917]

Memorizing music is preferable, but flip folders are really not that big of a deal. I totally dig the Drum major routine and backbend. Are those metal clarinets?

[@choiaf.4213]

they’re white plastic!

[@mull0516]

How do they have enough breath to play after jogging around so long?

[@EdieRaether]

Badger Band RULES!! Requires more physical fitness than being on the team that frequently does go to the Rose Bowl!

[@lifeofhi7233]

Yea no the football team is more physically fit than the band

[@Number1HockeyPlaya]

@Life of Hi gonna have to agree with you.

[@Marsh53172]

finally a good video of the run on!

[@calshorts4050]

Drum major shows a lot of pep!!!!!!!!!!

[@stinka4079]

you really got to be in shape to do this...lol

[@27briton]

On, Wisconsin!!!

[@macDaddy1118]

Gotta gives props to the tubas cause the bass line they were playing was on point

[@2693cookie]

Wait... Ohio has a band?

[@joelf5413]

why is no body in the stands? is it practice or a game?

[@mannyok7743]

Joel F ever been to a college football game more than 5 minutes before kickoff? Probably somewhere around 45 mins to a hour before kickoff I’m sure. It’s Wisconsin, they pack Badger Stadium every home game.

[@benmiskowski5280]

On Wisconsin!

[@ekdog91]

Who won that game?

[@AndrewMichaelM]

And holy bad horn angles!

[@lucaspinoli]

@buckeyenutz05 I love how you made Michigan into a swear word haha. B1G Pride!

[@likemike04]

watching this so that i can do the rafer alston skip to my lou

[@bobfwoter2513]

Our band can out drink your band!

[@wtowngnyus]

Amen!

[@SR71_Blackbird]

In no order I think Wisconsin, Purdue, Michigan and Ohio State are the best Big Ten bands. Not sure who I would put 5th

[@Musykah]

I want to be that dude with the mace :D

[@tammieknuth6020]

I don't think soo

[@clauspage]

Texas A&M Fighting Texas Aggie Band!!!

[@killerice1212]

do they march woodwinds, like tenor sax?

[@justforwatching97]

Thats a huge band...

[@SheRicoSuave]

@jphermann94 Finally, someone talks some sense!

[@tblankenbeker]

UW's step is challenging, exhausting, and very difficult. They have some of the best musicians of any university, but the exhaustion and the bounce in the step show up in lack of intonation and precision in the sound (cracked notes, inconsistent entrance and cutoff, etc.) The music is easy (enabling changing the shows) as is the drill design (it's only the step that makes this challenging), so why can't they memorize it? UW is good enough to do corps style, but they're stuck in the 1930's.

[@423rem]

sounds

[@wrljungren]

ohio state has the best damn band in the land

[@soccerking4197]

Good for you

[@usaswimmer1020]

6 people are from ohio state!

[@plaidkazoo]

I did not expect for there to be such a debate in the comments when I clicked...

[@한국내셔널리즘이영원]

+plaidkazoo It takes a lot of skill to do that, jealousy is an ugly trait.

[@plaidkazoo]

+Fuck all Weeaboos, fanboys/fangirls and other retards! I don't follow.

[@한국내셔널리즘이영원]

plaidkazoo I don't know why people like to fight over shit on the internet.

[@thumbun]

I'm from Minnesota, so I am not a big UW fan, but UW's run on is vastly superior to the OSU run on. Much more exciting and athletic.

[@amyhayden2257]

the badgers band is really good

[@smswiere]

@brysanna that's what I was thinking.... lol

[@4RZD]

USC wouldn't stand a chance... they already can't keep up with Cal or Washington's bands...

[@AndrewMichaelM]

This was very strange. And yeah, I'm in the MSU SMB and we never use flip folders.

[@waynelohn5316]

Wi band is the best on Wi

[@Avyncentia]

@ekdog91 The Badgers! 70-3

[@RNF2015]

@jphermann94 U of M and MSU can do it

[@traininvain7]

Indiana.

[@OsakaRan]

Minnesota ;))

[@dwemhoff]

too bad no one is there when this contrived, dinky band takes the field...ND Band is the best

[@DCHStrumpet]

@jphermann94 Ohio State does it... I would think such a "good" band would be capable of memorizing their own music. Also, awesome timing with those Sousaphone 270 spins at the beginning.

[@dancanterna]

@lucaspinoli He didn't make M*ch*g@n into a swear word..us buckeyes just refuse to say their name...

[@AnnaAnomaly]

I'm from Wisconsin, but I really don't like their band. It's....eh.....

[@AnnaAnomaly]

And who cares if they use flip folders? Better to know your music than to play a crap ton of wrong notes in front of a huge audience like that.

[@brysanna]

LOL...flip charts for a band you say is the best in the nation???

[@63ChipotleFreak]

All this bitching about flip folders. They're fucking FLIP FOLDERS. Who gives a shit. And stop complaining about which band is best. There are lots of great bands, who all do their own unique things. We have the stop-at-the-top, the legendary 5th Quarter, and indeed, we use FLIPFOLDERS. All I know is that we rock the house when we perform. I'm sure you other bands do, too. If you think anything else matters, then you probably should have never started playing music in the first place.

[@louisarmbrecht]

@jphermann94 real bands can learn how to march and memorize music at the same time. however, your band's entrance while yelling "ass and titties" really reflects the classiness of your university

[@kikamonju]

that's a weak back bend. the u of mn drum major this year had to take off his hat to do his back bends because he was a few inches off the ground.

[@padraicfanning7055]

Back bends are weak. Penn State probably has a more exciting drum major tradition. See for yourself (if you don't flip out, of course).

[@wrljungren]

the run was first by Ohio state and will always and will only be a ohio state tradition GO BUCKS!

[@ms-mo8hl]

I cant stand watching college bands. Ill stick to drum corps

[@williamtimmler1869]

NOT!!!

[@wrljungren]

ohio state does better than that run on

[@423rem]

Ohio state is much better this sound awful and the crowd sucks

[@williamtimmler1869]

NOT!!!
