    I love how they play while docking so that every ship/boat and person that's leaving and standing at the docks can hear them coming home and then someone sets off fireworks to welcome them home and people in thier community gather to cheer and welcome them back aswell. And people are sounding their ship's horns.😊🐉🐘 Is the entire population of Ohio gathered there?😞🐉🐘

    In case anyone is wondering, this was for the 200th anniversary of a naval victory off of the very tiny island of Put In Bay, Ohio, in Lake Erie. Unless you own your own boat, this ferry is generally the only way on or off the island itself. The large crowds that managed to gather in spite of this were to help celebrate this once-in-a-century commemoration.
    The tall ship at 6:21 is a replica of the Us Brig Niagara, the hero of the battle itself. The battle flag used by the Americans, "Don't Give Up The Ship", is also plastered everywhere throughout the video.

      Good luck getting tickets to an Ohio State game. However, whether you do or not, you can always hit up the Skull Session which occurs 2 hours before kickoff. It's open to anyone. They run through all the music they'll play that day. It's a dress rehearsal/pep rally. If there's a visiting band, they will play too. Then if you do have tickets, make sure you get to your seat to see pre-game. Stay in your seat for halftime, and watch them during postgame, both on and off the field.

    We were there and watched them land on the Island, & march through the Town. Later we sat and watched them play at the Monument. It was the highlight of our weekend. Now I'm so happy we were there that weekend, because my Big OSU fan, my husband, passed away 7 years ago this past Memorial Day weekend, but he was able to see His Buckeye Marching Band in person. He was thrilled. ❣️

  • @panzerwolf494
    @panzerwolf494 Před 4 lety

    What this video reminds me of was being a kid in my home town. We had two grade schools, a middle school, and a high school. On homecoming the high school band and the parade would head past all the schools around the town and end up back at the stadium next to the high school and kids would be lead out to the side of the road to watch the parade pass. Even before you could see it you could hear the cadences and music echoing through the neighborhood. the whole parade route was just over 5 miles long. I eventually got to take part when I got to high school and while the way I had to carry my instrument for the parade really wore out the arm, it was always a blast and I loved it. Now well into my adulthood I still miss those parades. I don't know if they even do them anymore. But the sounds of the music in the distance just always excites me, i become a kid again.
