Halftime was my favorite part of the game back in the day. I'm almost in tears listening to this lovely show and recognizing the songs. At 62 I truly miss the old days. Seems we had class back then. THIS WAS MARVELOUS!!!! ❤
This is why we loved FAMU: I was in TSU AOB that year and FAMU won the halftime show in Nashville with the execution of the Death March! They were EXCELLENT; I still talk about that performance 🔥🔥🔥❤️
Oh yes indeed and FAMU started that after Dr Foster got there in 1946 when he made up a routine to Alexander's Ragtime Band and it took off from there..
Nonstop drills, they didnt stop for one drill, it was constant moving, and the lines were straight and even. OMG EVERYBODY RATTLING IN STEP..HARD TO DO. Wow I appreciate old school even more. Hubba Hundred #96
Even though this was the Patriots-Dolphins game on Nov 30, 1969, it was held at the old Tampa Stadium, back when the Tampa Bay area was serious about getting a pro football team. Notice that the stadium itself had no end zone seating, and would not until the NFL granted Tampa Bay a team in 1974, which led to construction of the end zone seats in time for the Bucs to start play in '76. NBC's Charlie Jones was the commentator on this game, in which the Patriots beat the Dolphins 38-23.
Partially true.... This was BEFORE the merger was completed.. The deal was done but the on field merger was scheduled for the 1970 season .... This was the American Football League aka the AFL..,. The AFL played games in cities without professional football..... It was about gate receipts.... Notice the league had a tv deal with NBC... Once the best college football players started choosing the AFL over the NFL a bidding war started. The final straw was the New York Jets beating the Baltimore Colts in the Superbowl... The leagues merged with the surviving AFL teams becoming the AFC and the NFC was made up of the old NFL teams... Part of the agreement included expanding the league. After the merger there was pressure to add more teams.. 2 teams had to be added by 1968 which became the Atlanta Falcons and the New Orleans Saints... 2 teams had to be added by 1970. Tampa Bay and Seattle came into the league in 1976 like you said.. Tampa to the NFC West and Seattle to the AFC West...
The 100 was working on a groovin thing! Hubba Old School! Bishop A.J. Richardson was Head DM! Sarge was out there handling things! It was shows like this that truly laid the groundwork for the band to be exposed to a larger audience that led to greater success of the bands of the 70’s, 80’s and beyond! Again I say, HUBBA!
This makes me realize us who started viewing FAMU back in the 90's, 2000's and 2010 aren't special because FAMU were already doing some of their special stuff way back then like the beginning entrance song.
What a legacy Dr. Foster left, we briefly met him when , circa 1978 , (the band sent an group down, we didn’t hav money to bring our band, HBCU STUFF)NCA&TSU played them during the time 60 minutes was doing a documentary of FAMU , Anyway ,,,, doing show charts and pin wheels etc. bk in the ‘60s. Does anyone know the true history of how the Slow one was created? Would be a interesting video because that is how a band should TAKE THE FIELD in HBCU marching band language, I hate to see a band enter the field just walking on it,, no Style or class to me, when we took the field @ NCA&TSU bk in the mid 70’s, it meant something, because at that time our football team would lose a lot, but the DAM Band wasn’t gonna lose crap, we took that personal, And it was fun, so honor the marching bands and institutions you are with. Pick your feet up, play your part, and drive , was our motto.. thank you FAMU and Dr. William P. Foster. Have fun and enjoy yourselves young folk because time flys when ya having fun, and stay humble, arrogance is not cool with me, if you are good you really don’t need to belittle or degrade the next,,most of the folk I’m talking about in comments probably never played a instrument anyway, let along sweated and bleed marching band, but it is a Rush!
They were more h"B"cu back in 1969 than they are today Dec.5, 2024. It is The Reputation of THIS VERSION of FAMU Marching Band that Today's Version Lives Off Of!

Classic stuff. Thanks for posting!
You see that " Funky Chicken !" Homage to Nipsey Russell and Rufus Thomas!
Amazing
Famu started it all..gramving and morris brown followed!
I wish they wouldn't have done so many camera cuts so that we could actually see the formations
Past,Present,Future,bands will all try to mimic Dr.William P.Foster's everlasting feat.The mark of Excellence.FAMU Marching 100.
This was before Famu added piccolos and Flags
They drill way better than famu in the last 25 years

No women were in the band back then
And no Fat people were in the band back then.
When were women allowed in the band?
