Ohio State Marching Band’s Impressively Nerdy TV Tribute
 |
Videos of Ohio State’s marching band frequently go viral, as their elaborate tributes to things like video games and comic books hit the Internet’s sweet spot. This past weekend, it was our favorite re-runs that got the tribute. From a large Bart Simpson skateboarding off a ramp to the Lone Ranger’s horse Silver galloping across the football field, these living bits of choreography set to theme music tickle the eye and make you wonder how the hell the people on the ground can get so precise that a bird’s eye view sees a moving cartoon made of human pixels.
It’s a brilliant way to get people who’d never come to sports games otherwise to come support the home team. Or you could stay home and just watch the videos.
