The rules on the uil website say:

If there are 21 or more bands in prelims the bands ranked in the top ten places will automatically advance to the finals. In addition any band below tenth place that receives a ranking of three or higher from at least two of the music judges and one of the marching judges will also advance to the finals.

 

That's weird that the exception is 3 or higher. It used to be that if two of the music and one of the marching judges put you high enough to be in finals you'd advance.

I've never been a spectator at State. Does the Alamodome get a packed during finals? All of the videos make it seem like there are 5 people there <_>

Well....

 

Getting into The Alamodome is worse than a New York City traffic jam. A lot of bitter band parents start pushing their way towards the front. It really is a nightmare and I have a feeling that one of these years, if not this year, a shoving match will break out. Again, this is why I've stressed reserved seating for The Alamodome during all band competitions. Without it, it can be a very ugly situation.

 

UIL State is a bloodbath, especially for Finals. This is by far the biggest and most embittered State competition IN THE UNITED STATES. A lot of band parents and former students of programs competing in Finals make it a duty to see just THEIR band and no one else's. That might attribute to the many empty seats shown on State Finals videos.
