I’m a little disappointed that some groups made the decision to leave as early as they did, without performing, when this is the final show of the season, and most groups had all evening set aside for this contest. I get that it’s an inconvenience, but the words “student safety” are being thrown around a lot as though rain (and only rain) wasn’t in the forecast. I would guess it’s more about protecting instruments and electronics, but either way, I suppose it made sense for those groups to leave rather than risking the unknown. 🤷🏼♂️

Bummer about the delays :/ I wish they were still doing finals, I would have loved to watched Jenks and BA perform again. Hopefully next year though. I was excuted to see Jenks maybe beat BA!

Definitely disappointing. Hoping for much better weather next year!

I know rain shielding/covers for electronic equipment already exists, but someone with a creative mind needs to make some sort covers specifically designed for marching band equipment. I bet whoever does would make quite a bit of money lol

Why did OBA decide not to reschedule this until next week? It's not like they haven't done so in previous years for far less.

Mustang was super good!! Really love that show, it has grown so much! U think BA still takes the gold but it’s going to be closer than I thought! Mustang KILLED IT!

Westmoore’s show is so much fun!! The Mary Poppins theme works for me. A little bit of a rough start, but excellent job overall!

Oklahoma needs a dome desperately. Something indoors at least. I’m begging Yes. They should take a lesson from 2002 UIL state Marching contest in Waco. 😵💫. Then they moved to a dome.
