I almost missed The Best Damn Band In The Land yesterday.
When the parade started our local NBC affiliate switched to a rerun of Everyone Loves Raymond. "You've got to be kidding?", I thought. "TBDBITL is marching for the President at a turn of the page in the book of history and these folks are showing Raymond?"
Fortunately we had DVR'ed another channel and we were able to eventually see the President bobbing and weaving to Across The Field as marching bands finest passed the review stand. Curt called and said "Did you see it? Looks like we could make him a Buckeye."
The Lantern today has a great story about the background of the band marching in the Parade and what an honor it was that they were chosen to represent Ohio. You can read it at:
