The Rivalry between Madison and Jerfferson.

The first time we marched, we just barley finished our drill. The staff had little confidence that we would get a good placement, and thought it would be just a good experience for next year. We had home advantage and ended up doing great. Jefferson was mad when they found out we had a higher score then them. They have had a program for thirty years and we just started. Yet, our show scored more points. Now, I have seen only parts of their show, and they do have moments. But I honestly think our show gets the audience involved more. That is the point of marching band, to get the audience to be able to connect to the music. They practice as hard as we did for the next competition. But we also focused and we were excited to be able to have a bigger goal, which was to get through the next competition. Slowly, we were climbing the ranks. I bet it was frustrating to them to have always been at the top and this marching band comes out of no where and beats them every time, and with only tenths of a point. It was more frustrating to me when they were able to go to ACCs. But it didn't matter anyway since we came into second and they came a little below us. But I think it is kinda cool to have a rivalry. It make us just worker that much harder to reach our goal.
