Im just making a thread so people can post crazy/stupid/ embarrassing guard stories for fun. My guard is completely nuts, so I was wondering if other people had stories.
It was one of the guard members birthday and we had practice that day. The instructers had us to improv dance to express emotion and to help with our show, so we danced to songs like sexy back and what not. The improv got us in a really good mood so we were expressing alot of emotion when we were doing a run through. Then all of a sudden the fire alarms go off. Us, being the colorguard and completely nuts finshed the run through, and three minutes later we left the school. Turns out the school was on fire. We made so many jokes, like Happy Birthday the school is on fire! and we were so hot during sexy back we were able to set the school on fire. One of the guard members was on the volenteer fire department so the fire fighters came. It was really funny because we didnt even think to stop the run through. And we were able to fold the floor in 2 minutes.
So if any one else has crazy stories plz post

a couple of football guys were making fun of the marching band ingeneral and especially our best(and sexiest) trumpet, Cary Vaughn, shouted "Well, at least I don't tackle other men!" I still smile when I think about it!

We were at one of the many football games we have to go to every year and the guard was warming up. Off to the side some old football players (they had graduated a year or two before) kept saying how easy it was to twirl our flags and how we didn't do any real work. So Courtney and I took a couple flags over and asked them to try. Niether one of them knew what to do and when one of them tried to spin the flag he hit himself in the face and got a black eye. We laughed forever about that. But, he never made fun of the guard again.

When I was in 8th grade, our guard went to the Las Vegas Regional. It was a lot of fun, and for everyone who has never been, there is always TONS of booth-tent-things selling guard-everything (I think I heard about some guard underwear...lol). Anyway, I bought a shirt that said "If Colorguard were easy, It Would be Called Cheerleading!" (I'm actually wearing it right now). Anyway, on the first day back from the trip, I, being the naive little 8th grader I was, wore that shirt...to school...the next day, my captain (who is actually younger than me) asked me if it was true that I had worn that shirt to school....it turned out she had overheard that some cheerleaders wanted to beat me up!!!! redface xp confused ninja

ok so like my colorguard was warming up at a football game and the choir was singing next to us while we were warming up and we didnt really think of it. so as we were performing "iron man" at our show we had this part where everyone threw their equipment to the side and danced than picked up the other piece of equipment they were supposed to use. so we kinda forgot the choir was beside us and the sabres, rifles, and flags all threw them to the side, and we killed all the choir except for this guy bradley who caught a rifle perfectly and threw a freakin 9. A FREAKING NINE. without trying to. it made me wanna cry cause he caught it. but being the amazing guy he is, he became captain and my bf ;D

Our sabre tech Mary lol she's very quiet and reserved.... until you get her drunk and tells all these mad stories... back on track, we had a critique at a new jersey regional last year and we got third in prelims. Mainly Mary stays quiet and listens to everyone... but the group that got first had many many drops (including a dropping of a girl onto her face while lifting) Mary stepped in at the end saying "I don't get how people with zero technique took this. they executed everything poorly while the other two gave all their might. So looking back to what you have said i must say that your ruling is ZERO!!!!" lol she was yelling it so loud and before she left she made a zero with her hand and screamed zero one last time lol oh good times.
Another time at drumcorps there is a judge that HATES my guard instructor also she'll make us lose to anybody doesn't matter how good or bad. Our show that year was Tarot. so she got Lennie so mad he screamed i hope you die and thru the death card in her face... and then was kicked out of critique lol

I have another story that happened in fall guard this past year. It was our first football game and we were getting our equipment to warm up. One of the little 8th graders took her flag, and went to adjust them by making them stand on the ground. To bad she happened to be over a sewer vent....

archangel42124 another thing is flashing everybody in the whole school while preforming our show..... with leggings on but still... redface I have luckily never done that. The closest I have gotten to that is changing on the band bus (we shared with the pit last year) But now we have to do it on the bus with the whole band this year...
