The stadium size is fine, but the parking is horrible. Barely enough room for the band trailers. Warmup areas were a very long walk from the stadium. Not sure why it has to be here when there may be better options in Tyler. The 2.5 hour drive each way was real fun too....... but some schools had an even longer drive than that.

Farmersville has finished ahead of Van Alstyne a few times this year. Van Alstyne finished ahead of North Lamar in the prelims at Celina and North Lamar finished ahead of Van Alstyne in the finals. -

So the parking looks like it is going to be a nightmare. Don't understand why a stadium is used that has maybe 10% parking capacity compared to stadium compacity. Any tips from people that have been to Area competitions here in the past on parking? -

Farmersville placed higher than them at the Celina Marching Invitational. To be honest Sulphur Springs has a very good show and they are my prediction for number 1. -

I may have read this wrong but it sounds like to me if the band declared as a military band at regionals and got a 1 they automatically advance to state. https://www.uiltexas.org/files/music/State_Military_Marching_Band_Contest_Pilot.pdf -

Van Alstyne only had 3 movements of their show at the Princeton contest. So they probably have room for improvement as well. They placed higher than Community and Pine Tree in the finals. Their show title is Hide And Seek.
