This community is probably the greatest hive mind I've ever run across, and I thought this could be an interesting and fun challenge for everyone...
What examples do you know of props getting sold and then reused by different bands in a different show?
Example: The gigantic Mandarins, Vista Ridge and Coppell carousel.
What else?

I'm pretty sure Penn Trafford high school in Harrison City PA bought and used the Carolina Crown Stagecoach from relentless.

My band, Lumberton, used a flyover that we got from Mckinney HS from their 2016 show for our 2017 show.

University of Cincinnati used a portion of the Jagged Line prop I believe.
Somebody bought parts of the SCV nesting stages from Babylon, but I don't know who.

Henry Clay, KY bought the "spaceships" from Brownsburg's 2018 SkyWorld show and painted them white for their 2019 Ice World show.

Burleson Centennial had the Jagged Line prop this past fall
Seven Lakes props in 2019 looked oddly similar to the ones Blue Knights used in 2018
The stage Waxahachie used in 2019/2020 was used by Midlothian? I think

And for the bargain price of $6000, you too could have blue balls.... As in the Vista Ridge props from 2021.

Walton HS used puzzle piece tarps in 2015 that were sold to O'Fallon for their 2016 show, and the tarps were later used by the Tomball HS band in 2017 (along with the puzzle piece props). I believe they were passed on again in 2018 but I'm not entirely sure who bought them. This was the only example that came to mind other than the ones already listed

After performing on the massive O'Fallon Township tarps I would like to imagine that those things are rotting in a landfill somewhere. Fun show and great memories but those things were borderline unusable by the end of Nats 2018 with all the crap smashed and smeared all over them. May God have had mercy on any band kids whose director decided to buy them from OFT after 2019

I just hope that if the giant circle prop is used again it doesn’t continue to be cursed. Both Vista Ridge and Coppell had their SA prelims performances moved to early mornings due to issues the years they used them. Just weird that it happened twice.

May God have had mercy on any band kids whose director decided to buy them from OFT after 2019 Westfield VA out by me bought the ribbon tower things from O'Fallon after 2018 for their show Breaking Barriers (which is my favorite marching band show I have ever seen Live). These are the same guys who went semi-viral in 2021 for the quads player in the Gyroscope from their show Revolution. |

I’m excited to see someone roll out the floating stages from the Rihanna halftime.
I assume it will Carmel or The Woodlands due to cost.

An Indiana Class B band has purchased several of the rolling “cages” from Brownsburg. That’s cool and good for Brownsburg. That type of sale definitely helps the budget. My daughter is in a class B band so it will be fun seeing them again this year. I wonder what band bought them? |

Cedar Ridge's building stages from this year were actually CTJs front-field stages from 2021, with vinyl decals added!

If anyone follows the Troopers on Facebook, you know that someone in Central Indiana bought "Derrick", the huge prop from the Troopers' 2022 show. I've been trying to sleuth out who, but no clues yet....

I'm thinking there must be some reconfiguration going on...that thing is at least 20 feet tall in its original form.... |
