not sure if this the correct board, but last time we won a NC, they marched in Rex.

I'm not sure if the policy has changed, but the original was for the band to march every fourth year in order that members would do so once during their years. I imagine that the costs associated with transporting, feeding and housing 350 people was a consideration.

If there really is a four year policy, we should be seeing them at the front of the parade.

2003
2007
2011
2015
2019

But I doubt there's any policy. Rex gets who they want.

Eddie is too busy counting $$$ to watch football. Wouldn't be surprised if he's in Bacchus

I sent an email about Joe riding two months ago to the krewe.

My guess would be Bacchus as well. They seem to be more connected to the local sports.

I would be shocked Bacchaus and Endymion haven’t reached out to Burrow and other players to ride. Not sure if Guys will break from combine training to do it. Would be great if they did.

They marched in 2004, 2008 and 2012



I will be PISSED if they don’t




It basically is if LSU plays for the title the band matches in Rex. There was no four year rule

They’ve marched every year LSU has played for a championship so I’d think yes. They were in Zulu last year though so we’ll see.

I believe they marched in Zulu because it was the first time an LSU student was Queen of Zulu.

You sure you want the Tiger Band in Madrid Gras 2020? They may get hit by a runaway, fast moving tandem float.

Wait for MG 2021...think of the children by God!
