I've never been a fan of the Bucks football but I sure do love this marching band.

Thank you for sharing!

But then they played 'Marching through Georgia' and 'Battle Hymn of the Republic'.

Just a little too over the top for me. But certainly unique.

They earlier had done Michael Jackson's 'Moon Walk'. What next? Lady Gaga's meat dress?

Thanks, Fox and Friends:
For directing my attention to Obama's 'godless' recital of the Gettysburg Address. I know I should shave been outraged immediately but, forgive me, I researched the question for myself.
I learned a lot more about that wonderful speech in the process.
I also learned that you guys don't give a damn for a single word of it.

on a mega-scale! (Although I think the horse form could use a little work.)

I like different types of performance art, this one is getting better. I liked the Moon-walk program they did recently. Never was into marching bands but I like a good performance regardless of the art form.

Thanks for sharing.
