Tonight we went with some other 1L’s and others from the ward. There were 4 couples total that went together. It was a lot of fun to attend this free event. We all were poking fun of the band because where we all came from the marching bands weren’t taken seriously. Soon we realized we were in the wrong crowd because the marching band is taken as seriously as the football team. They go hand in hand on game day. To be honest though, the band was huge and very talented. They gave a demonstration of just their marching skills and my hat is off to them. There is a tradition at this concert that the band has a competition on precision. It starts with the entire band marching and as one person messes up they get tagged out and they go until the very last person. They speed up the tempo of the marching. It went on for a long time because there were a lot of good people in the band. There is another tradition at these concerts. First year UNL students do the “Tunnel Run”. All the freshman rush the football field at the end of the concert and come out of the tunnel that the football team comes out of. At first we laughed and joked how it was our first year of school at UNL, so 4 of us ended up rushing the field as well. It was a fun evening and we ended by heading to the ice cream store on the East Campus. It was a good relaxing start after law orientation and Traci’s week at work. Now we brace ourselves for more work and the official first day of law school!
