I would love to see some "he-man football players" come out and try band camp in the hot sun, carry a set of 30-50 pound drums or try not to scream while standing at attention with a horn in your hands because the pain is unbearable.

Thanks for making me laugh tonight, you just made my whole week worthwhile. I hope you are not being serious with that post. 3 a days in football, or band camp, which is harder?? In no way possible can you say that band camp is rougher, that's quite possibly the dumbest statement i have read on this forum (and i have read quite a few posts from chubz)

Gotta go with you Roy. How can you even try and compare band camp to football camp and 3 a-days. Ok you have 4-5 people carrying 30-50 lb drums, try wearing your 50 lbs all over your body along with a helmet 5 lb helmet all of which just intensifies the heat. As soon as the band memebers start wearing full padding and run (not march/walk) around hitting one another with their instruments you will have the start of an argument.

Let me also say I am not just saying this a football player, I did join the band for a while in 8th grade and am doing my comparisons having experienced both.
