Donezo Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 I was there, and I don't remember that.... I remember that. It was pretty crazy. I mean I know it was an upset but..........geez. At least they waited for the drum majors to leave the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king_kool360 Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 i congratulated poteet's drum majors after medal announcement but didn't even get a glance. but honestly, if that's the way that they prefer to be, then leave them be. it's definitely not good sportsmanship, but it's not necessary for us to be bashing them for it. all of us know of their poor behavior and that's how their reputation will remain until they fix it (or until someone beats them). just my .02.

silentwatch Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 Not all of them are bad. On our way down to state, we stopped in Waco for lunch, and a few friends and I went to Whataburger (king of fast food. ). Some parents from Poteet walked in and wished us best of luck at the contest. They were really nice. What were Poteet parents doing in Waco? I thought Poteet was south of SA??

Danpod Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 What were Poteet parents doing in Waco? I thought Poteet was south of SA?? There are two Poteets. The Poteet south of San Antonio does not have a very big band at all. Gotta love those strawberries though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta love those strawberries though. Ahhhh! So the State Champ band is NOT the strawberry festival band?? I never knew...LOL. That clears up a LOT for me now.

Donezo Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 Haha. We used to get that a whole lot. Dr. Ralph H. Poteet High School (the one who won SMBC) is in Mesquite, which shares a border with East Dallas (Fair Park area if that means anything to you.) It is one of five high schools in Mesquite ISD and one of two 4A schools. It's in the same UIL region as Garland, Richardson, Rockwall, Forney, Greenville, Canton, Mabank, and several very small cities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silentwatch Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 ZOMG! THERE'S A STRAWBERRY FESTIVAL?! OH....memories!!! I lived in Bulverde, TX (near SA) my middle school and high school years and I remember marching in the Strawberry Festival parade. Everything strawberry, you could find there! It was heavenly!!! http://www.strawberryfestival.com/ It is a lot of fun. I haven't been there in more than 20 years (showing my age now!), but oh, the memories!!!

marcomac29 Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 Us? no... process of elimination = ... They were yelling some very racist things to one of our drum majors. And the pit said they couldn't even hear the band they were yelling so loud. Because we were visitor and the student section is right there in front on the home side which is where we were performing to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borchnork Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 hmmm. I don't remember it probably because we left the stadium right after announcements. The drum majors had JUST STARTED to walk off the field as we left the stands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
