FSU Marching Chiefs 1996 Pregame Show

This is the Florida State University Marching Chiefs Pregame Show from 1996. This pregame show is from the Southern Mississippi game. The Seminoles defeated Southern Mississippi 54-14. FSU that year was ranked #3 in the AP Poll and was the ACC Champion, defeated every team in the ACC that year. They had an undefeated season, playing for the National Championship in the Sugar Bowl against Florida. Unfortunately, Florida won 52-20. But we did beat them earlier in the season 24-21.

I was in the Marching Chiefs during the 1996 season. Was one of the best times in my life. MCATDT!!!! Marching Chiefs All The Damn Time!!!!!

@pumphd.....I agree with you 100%. Unfortunately, in 1996, Doak Campbell Stadium at FSU was going through major renovations, with additions of a hotel management building, the University Center, bowling in the stadium and addition of several sky boxes and a new press box. As a result, the place where the School of Music video taped all Marching Chief performances that year were outside and 11 stories in the air with lots of wind, which is why it sounds like thunder.
