Come to a JT game and you will hear the big blue band all night long. And you will see the fans getting into the game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoyzNdaHood Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I love it especially in a tight game, it rises the intensity level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trueblue82 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 It’s a part of high school football. There are some rules as to when they can play, but they’re usually only enforced if a coach asks for it. Without the bands, a lot of high school games would have a very dead atmosphere. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheShadowKnows Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Bands should play during the game, always have and always will. The real question is why do they have props!! What is the point of those things! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

randomuser Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Because the 1st half is pregame and the 2nd half postgame for the band. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HearEmaGrowlin Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I love bands blasting while the opposing offense is on the field. I wish Carthage’s band would do it like we used to in the past. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you had 10 Friday’s for the band to play on thier own without a sport nobody would show up. Absolutely nobody! So the band aids need to take a quick lesson on te universe and learn the world does not revolve around them. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cotton84 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Haven’t seen Allen play in a few years, but I know they used to have a band director who loved football and knew football. The 500 member band never played when Allen had the ball and they did their best to make it hard on the opposing team’s offense by blasting music. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our band director couldn’t care less about football. So, the band is zero help to the football team even in the biggest of games. Shameful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoemen700 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I think the Bands are Great for Highschool football. They get the fans more involved. YOE has a Great Band and Band Director. Go Yoe 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bordertown Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 The issue is when the band plays while their team is on offense. I don’t know how many times I have heard the “Battle of the Bands” in the forth quarter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The real question is why do they have props!! What is the point of those things! Yeah, the props thing has gotten out of hand. Especially when it comes to contests. Competition should be based on the performance of the musicians. I'm not going to mention to anyone in Yoe Nation that someone complained about bands playing during the game. You don't mess with the mighty YOEMEN BAND. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if I’m not, those kids deserve to have fun and perform in front of a crowd too. Just because band is not as popular that means they shouldn’t get to show off what they worked on? As great as football is, band doesn’t exist for it. And football doesn’t exist for band either. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
