A certain Texas band whose name begins with a W, that has never attended Grand Nationals before (to my knowledge), is highly speculated to attend. Full list of Texas bands starting with W that have competed in BOA but not attended GNs: West Campus, W.R. Ray, Weslaco East, Winnsboro, Western Hills, Weslaco, W.H. Adamson, Wimberley, Willis, Wagner, William B. Travis, William J. Brennan, Wills Point, W.E. Boswell, W. Charles Akins, William Howard Taft, Wylie, Waller, Waxahachie, Weiss, Westwood, Wylie East, Westlake. My guess is Waxahachie, Weiss, Westlake, Westwood, or Wylie East. White

I think you need to translate White into a different language to get what he means.

With the right design they will be a finalist contender. (Did I do that right Texas folks?)

Seeing as one of those bands just went on a Disney trip I have a good idea who this is.

The way it’s looking, the field is even more wide open than it was in 2018.

Westwood has been trying hard to get to GN. Is it not them?! They may be one of the Texas groups aiming to go (and I REALLY hope they do!) but they’re not the “W” group mentioned earlier. One of the five guesses from neop216 is true. And that’s all the hints I can give. 😅

Seems like this might end up being the Austin Area’s best representation at GN yet. Tied with 2016/2019 already and a decent chance it blows past.

Definitely Weiss then. That's "White" in German.

I’m doubtful of this for a few reasons. Probably most important of all is the fact that Leander usually announces GN trips by now to aid fundraising. Leander isn’t the Title I school it was a decade ago, but the means are still “modest” enough to require some headway into the trip. There’s one other important reason, but that’ll present itself later. Robert Selaiden sent out a message saying that they will be announcing an “out of state” trip at a fundraiser meeting soon so It’ll be nats or St. Louis. Not attending.
