on a beautiful night
at the university of michigan
home of the wolverines
and the women
of the winning softball team
went head to head
with the georgia bulldogs
worthy adversaries
in the second game
of the ncaa regionals
and we were lucky enough
to have seats directly next to
the alumni marching band
loyal, spirited, musical, happy
as they
jumped up
cheered
played
and
very
enthusiastically
trash-talked
the rivals
and
called the plays
as everyone got in on the act
and
desmond howard
and sons
sat in
on cowbell
and in the end
the wolverines
were victorious
earning a spot
in the college world series
and
all the trash talking
music
hard work
sweat
and
talent
paid off.

I was in band so enjoy sitting with grown up band players, ha ha! I was never very good at clarinet but we use cowbells at the Columbus Clippers games, where there is even a song and a chant that says, “Columbus, ring your cow bells!” Oh, you were probably so happy to be out in the great weather at such a fun place to be! :)
