I was in the Corps of Cadets at A&M. Before all home football games, the entire corps forms up on the Quad (grassy area admist the Corps Dorms) and marches parade-style to Kyle Field and on the track around the field to be reviewed by a reviewing officer.
The Commanding Officer of each outfit always leads, is about 5 steps in front of the block with the outfit guidon(flag) a pace behind and to his.......right? (not sure) Anyway, the Executive Officer(like the VP) gets to lead one march-in each year. My senior year in the Corps (4 out of 6 at A&M) i was the XO for my outfit. The XO march-in was supposed to be the KSU game in 2000, but my CO had a bunch of familiy coming in and asked if i'd switch to lead the OU game instead.
That was the fall of 2000, when OU came to Kyle Field and we were on Game Day. At the end of the Pre-Game Show on ESPN, they started to cut to commercials over scenes from march-in, Guess who was seen close up on national TV leading his Corps outfit?
