Oh I know it isn't BOA's choice. And I just checked Louisville's page and they don't have a link to pay for that yet. Maybe it's one that you'll have to pay on person when you get there rather than ahead of time like Toledo is letting you do. Either way, still lame. 😒

Pretty sure it’s $5 cash to park at Austin as well but I think it goes to the school that’s hosting it, so I don’t mind paying it.

If it's going to the local school, I don't mind nearly as much. Support the Arts!
The Toledo parking cost through the link is $5.73 so not the worst at least.

And an aerial view on Google Maps doesn't appear to provide any nearby (easily walkable) free parking options. That would be a change. I didn't have to pay to park either in 2016 (when I parked in Lot 9, immediately south of the stadium) or last year (when I parked in Lot 5, about a three-minute walk northeast from the stadium).

I dont remember paying for parking the times I went to this either. I do concur that it is a nice stadium. Better than Bowling Green and Yipsilanti (EMU) in my opinion.

Having had a chance to watch those shows (thank you btw), ready to put in my predictions!
1. Homestead 2. Jenison 3. Goshen (dependent on if the show is finished. If not flip 3/4) 4. Rockford (see above comment) 5. PCEP (no video and they notoriously start the season a bit sluggish it seems) 6. Beavercreek 7. Reeths-Puffer (they are sooo much better than last year at this point. Very glad they seem to be on the upswing again) 8. Hamilton Southeastern 9. DeWitt (winning state last year is a great sign. I hope they come and impress) 10. Archbishop Alter (able to make magic happen twice?) 11. Kings 12. Lake Central
First Bands out - Victor, Dublin Coffman (could easily see either of these bumping up as high as 8th depending)
Remember, this is all just for fun!! :-D

Any word on how Homestead is doing so far this year? I haven't been able to find a video if them, and the last time I heard any comment on their cleanliness was like a month ago and at that point it wasn't looking good.

I haven't been able to find a video if them, and the last time I heard any comment on their cleanliness was like a month ago and at that point it wasn't looking good. There was a video out from their 9/10 competition in Goshen but it's gone now. At that point they had about 4 1/2 minutes on the field and there seemed to be not very much choreography. And no props yet. I couldn't personally judge cleanliness from the video. There seems to be some disagreement between some posters here and some of my old mates on the State of the program. This weekend should tell us a bit on where they are.

1. Homestead, IN (my safe choice to win for now) 2. Rockford, MI (could see them anywhere 2-5) 3. Jenison, MI (My dark horse to win if everything goes their way) 4. Goshen, IN (same as Rockford) 5. Plymouth-Canton, MI (I was slightly let down last year, but they should be solid) 6. Reeths-Puffer, MI (looked good in the video from last weekend, but could see them as low as 9) 7. Kings, OH (this is a guess) 8. DeWitt, MI (have been solid in MI, excited to see them in BOA) 9. Archbishop Alter, OH (love this group, I think they have an outside shot at top 6) 10. Beavercreek, OH (also a guess) 11. Hamilton Southeastern, IN (it would be cool to see them make finals) 12. Dublin Coffman, OH (would also be cool to make finals) ————————— 13. Dixie Heights, KY 14. Lake Central, IN 15. Parkersburg South, WV 16. Victor, NY 17. Crestwood, OH

... 7. Kings, OH (this is a guess) In my experience, Kings usually comes out slow and grows a lot during the season. Last year they did make Finals at this event on Oct. 2, though.

I recently watched a video of Kings and oh my. You're in for a bit of a treat with what they are going to be bringing out during the second/third part. It certainly grabbed my attention! As for Homestead, I haven't had a chance to see them since they competed at Goshen. I still personally believe they are looking to be a much stronger group this year. Now whether or not they will be bringing out their props yet or other surprises this weekend, I'm not sure. I'm just a fan/observer of bands lol. But I fully 100% believe that they are performing what they've been given very well and are ahead of where they were last year. This show design has a ton of room for potential growth and believe that they have a very solid foundation. Even when I'm not wearing my Homestead Homer hat. We'll just have to see how it plays out tomorrow but I'm looking forward to it and think several people will probably be surprised by them. Hopefully in a good way.

I’m anxious to see Homestead. I can’t imagine they won’t have their new uniforms and props ready for this competition. Not 100% about the uniforms or props yet but not looking likely. It’s looking like early October for both. So the flag props will be at Toledo tomorrow, the new uniforms will not.

Rockford has a nice show, but was it me or did the kids just not seem into it?? Some sloppy-ness in the music but that is to be expected. I actually think this show will read better at night just based on the color scheme.

I actually think this show will read better at night just based on the color scheme. The thing I noticed was in Music Ensemble. Some overblowing here and there. Overall, still a good run. We will see the others, but definitely a contender for top 5

I just started tuning in, so unfortunately missed Rockford and everyone before them.
Lake Central seemed to start off pleasantly well, but it was kind of messy after the first movement was over. I don't think that fly-over tarp went as planned though! There are definitely some moments they sounded pretty balanced as an ensemble.
