West High played Farragut, a town just to the west of Knoxville, on Friday night. Since the Hardin Valley Academy team was playing out of town, I had the chance to come see Jacob play with the West High marching band. Jacob agreed to pose for one or two pictures in his uniform.
The band plays from the stands during the game. Jacob is in the third row from the bottom, directly under the first tuba.
The band plays a variety of short, catchy, upbeat songs meant to inspire their team to victory.
At half time of the football game the bands perform out on the field. Unfortunately it is dark at that point of the evening and parents are not allowed to wander out on the field and take pictures. That's why this picture isn't so clear. But Jacob is standing just to the right of the "30" yard line marker.
Band members not only play their instruments but also march around in patterns, twisting and turning and somehow not running into each other.
After the half time performance the band members discussed their plans for the second half.
West High has a mascot based on their nickname of "Rebels". I don't think he can hear or see very well and it took a bit of prodding to get him to stop and pose.
Here's the West High stands with the band playing right at the kickoff of the second half. Note the young men with the red body paint. They are lined up to spell out "West Rebels".
